The abbey of "ter duinen" which were built between 1628 and 1642 in baroque style to the Potterierei, is a monument of European format, also by its rich history.
After the suppression of the abbey in 1796, the complex acted as a school, military warehouse and museum. Since 1833 it has done service as a seminar. Condidate priests stay here now well the one or two that still want to be a priest.

Its a beautiful place really stunning architecture right in the middle of bruges they really should make it into a yet an other museum but they dont or atleast make the grounds that surround it into a public park or something.

This one is also from the day at The abbey of "ter duinen".
