St Sebastian's Guild

Windmills and Canals in Bruges - Belgium 4K Travel Channel

Not only the Netherlands has its windmills. Since the end of the 13th-century windmills were built in Bruges along the original ramparts. Some windmills stand nearby the city center, and so we decide to take a walk along the canals to see them. Along the Speelmansrei Und Augustijnenrei Canal which runs directly behind our accommodation, the hotel Bryghia, we stroll in eastern direction. The picturesque scenery offers marvelous photo motifs.
We cross the Langrei Canal and walk along the Carmersstraat. The scenery increasingly changes into a suburb. Here are strikingly many B&B accommodations.
Passing the English Convent, a large convent, we reach the St. Sebastiansgilde, Kon. Hoofgilde.
The Guild of Saint Sebastian is the only archers' guild in the world that exists already more than 600 years. The guild has two famous female members, Queen Matilda of Belgium and the Queen of England.
Just around the corner, we reach the first windmills on the hills of the ancient rampart. The place assured that the wind could blow straight onto the windmills. These were mounted centrally on large wooden beams, to orientate it to the wind.
The Sint-Janshuismolen, St. Janhuis Mill, built-in 1770, is the only windmill still standing in its original place today. The mill is still fully functional and now houses a museum. It can be visited daily, from April to September, except on Mondays.
Behind the ancient rampart runs a canal, where we see a modern barge passing by.
Further south, we reach Kruispoort Gate, an imposing city gate. Today's city gate is the third version of the gate. The first gate was built here from 1297 to 1304 and replaced in 1366. After the capture of Bruges by the citizens of Ghent in 1382, Philipp van Artevelde destroyed the gate. One built the third version of Kruispoort in 1400.
In the distance, we can still see that one of the windmills is moving.

Nicht nur die Niederlande haben ihre Windmühlen. Seit Ende des 13. Jahrhunderts wurden in Brügge entlang der ursprünglichen Stadtmauer Windmühlen gebaut. Einige Windmühlen stehen unweit des Stadtzentrums und so machen wir einen Spaziergang entlang der Kanäle um sie zu sehen.

Entlang des Speelmansrei und Augustijnenrei Kanals, der direkt hinter unserer Unterkunft, dem Hotel Bryghia verläuft, gehen wir in Richtung Osten. Die malerische Kulisse bietet herrliche Photomotive.

Wir überqueren den Langrei Kanal und spazieren die Carmersstraat entlang. Die Kulisse wandelt sich vermehrt in ein Vorortviertel. Hier gibt es auffällig viele B&B Unterkünfte.
Am Englischen Konvent, einem großen Frauenkloster vorbei erreichen wir die St. Sebastiansgilde, Kon. Hoofgilde.
Die St. Sebastiansgilde ist die einzige Bogenschützengilde der Welt, die bereits seit 600 Jahren existiert. Die Gilde hat zwei berühmte weibliche Mitglieder, Königin Mathilde von Belgien und die Königin von England.
Gleich um die Ecke erreichen wir die ersten Windmühlen auf den Hügeln der ehemaligen Stadtmauer. Die Lage gewährleistete, dass sie vom Wind ungehindert erreicht werden. Die Windmühlen sind auf großen Holzbalken zentral gelagert und können somit im Wind ausgerichtet werden.
Die Sint-Janshuismolen, St. Janhuis Mühle, aus dem Jahre 1770, ist die einzige Windmühle, die heute noch an ihrem ursprünglichen Platz steht. Die noch voll funktionsfähige Mühle beherbergt heute ein Museum. Sie kann von April bis September, täglich, außer Montags, besichtigt werden.
Hinter der ehemaligen Stadtmauer verläuft ein Kanal, der gerade von einem modernen Frachtkahn passiert wird.
Weiter in Richtung Süden erreichen wir die Kruispoort, das Kreuztor, ein imposantes Stadttor. Das heutige Stadttor ist bereits das dritte Tor an dieser Stelle. Das erste Tor wurde von 1297 bis 1304 hier errichtet und 1366 ersetzt. Nach der Einnahme von Brügge durch die Genter Bürger im Jahre 1382 wurde das Tor von Philipp van Artevelde zerstört. Im Jahre 1400 baute man die dritte Version der Kruispoort.
In der Ferne sehen wir noch, dass sich eines der Windräder in Bewegung setzt.

Guild Of The Noble Knights Of St. Sebastian Silver Processional Staff Finial Belgium 1716

A silver finial from a processional staff. A circular disk with molded rim, engraved with the figure of the martyred St. Sebastian on one side and inscription on the other dated 1716 sits atop a plain tapered shank to the base to take the now absent wooden staff. The shank has a maker's mark which appears to be the letters 'IB', with a device in between the letters. The maker's has not been identified, though the association with Eernegem would suggest that this is Flemish. Certainly it is early 18th century and contemporary with the inscribed date and I have no reason from what I can see to doubt that it is anything other than silver. It looks possibly that the disc is some type of medallion that has been adapted to be mounted as a staff finial. Loosely translated, the inscription reads: This pointer was given at Eernegem by Looms Mares, King of the Noble Knights Of St. Sebastian. Dated 1716.

ISM Liturgy Symposium - Barbara Haggh-Huglo - April 16, 2018

The Liturgy of Lay Foundations in Ghent, 1400 - 1500


Did the laity control worship at church altars outside the main choir in Ghent in the century before the Reformation? How can these lay liturgies be categorized? Were they always votive? In this presentation, I explore the liturgies of a variety of lay foundations and the extent to which they were personal, private, communal, or of political consequence. I argue for a different understanding of late-medieval liturgy, one that is mindful of those physically present or not and their role, and of such events as bread distributions, or essential objects, including paintings. Discussed are the liturgy for the dead and for series of votive masses, for the Mandatum, and for two foundations of wider import, that for a mass before the Adoration of the Lamb, and for a new Marian feast, the ‘Recollectio festorum beate Marie virginis.’
