“What the hell was that?”
 
In comparison to what previous people say, Historium is not just Bruges, but it's a museum on the market. They- just like london dungeon- try to recreate the old Bruges, but is this necessary in a historically preserved town? Just walking on àny street in Bruges will give you a bigger kick, and you won't have to pay 11 euros for that. ELEVEN!
The museum is a sequence of pretty sadly designed rooms squeezed together, with an unsynchronised story to follow on projections with sometimes a smell of old firewood, a breathing plastic man or a moving parrot.
Shame that such a beautiful building goes to waste, with the biggest tourist trap I've ever seen.
Even for the toilets there's gonna be a charge.
