Grab your ticket for the Frietmuseum, a museum in Bruges dedicated to the history of French fries, a notable Belgian specialty.
Bruges Fries Museum Ticket
Located in the heart of the historic centre of Bruges, the Frietmuseum focuses on the history of French fries, a well-known Belgian product. With your ticket, which includes an audio guide, you will learn about the introduction of potatoes to Europe from America following the 15th-century discovery of the New World. The potato gained significance in the 18th century, particularly through the efforts of Antoine-Augustin Parmentier, who promoted it as an alternative food source.
The museum features important anecdotes and facts about the potato’s impact on diets. As you explore the Saaihalle, a 14th-century building that houses the Frietmuseum, you will discover how frying potatoes originated and find several recipes for preparing potatoes at home. Additionally, the museum answers the question of what makes Belgian-style fries special. A visit is incomplete without a stop at the museum cafeteria to sample authentic Belgian fries.
Opening Times
The Bruges Frietmuseum is open daily from 10 am to 5 pm, with an entrance every 15 minutes.
