Saaihalle

Description

The "Saaihalle", or "Natiehuis van de Genovezen", in #Brugge (West-Vlaanderen), is the city's oldest building with a year of construction (1399) on the facade. Originally housing Genoa's commercial agents, it expanded in 1441 with a consul's residence. After Brugge's 15th-century decline, the Genoese left; by the 17th century, it became the "Saaihalle" for wool weavers.
