Bruges from the air
06/2023 In the warm light of sunrise, Justitia on the roof of the Brugse Vrije seems almost aliveāas if watching over the awakening city. The golden figure with sword and scales has symbolized law and order for centuries and serves as a reminder that the Brugse Vrije was once the seat of one of Flanders' oldest administrative units. The richly decorated facade of the building, located directly on Castle Square, glows in the first light of day, revealing its Baroque details with particular clarity. Behind Justitia, the old town unfolds with its towers and roofs, still quiet and peaceful before life begins in the narrow streets. This image combines history, architecture, and the magic of a new day over Bruges.
