archives institution, listed building / architectural heritage
In the 15th century this was a meeting place for Bruges' Poorters (Burghers) and the headquarters of a jousting organization known as the Order of the White Bear. A statue of an upright bear holding a shield still occupies a niche on the corner of the building. Since 1912 a branch of the Belgian State Archives has been located here.
