Louis Gruthues is the most famous nobleman of his time in Belgium. He received all the awards that his country could give, including the Order of the Golden Fleece - a knightly award established by Philip the Good. Also for his hospitality and assistance to the king, he was granted the title of Earl of Winchester. Under Gruthus, the castle in which he lived in Bruges was completed and remade.
After restoration in the 19th century, the palace was turned into a museum of history and applied arts, where the interior of a wealthy family of the Middle Ages was restored. Address: Dijver 17. For those wishing to visit the museum - entrance 8 euros (price 2015)
