Nederland - Breda, Begijnhof
The Begijnhof (or officially Catharinabegijnhof Breda) was first mentioned in 1267, but must have existed some time before that. The beguinage was moved to its current location in the centre of Breda around the year of 1535. In the 19th century, the court was expanded with a second courtyard and the single-nave St Catherine church. The walled complex of the beguinage consists of 29 houses around an herb garden with 300 different kinds of spices and lawn, which was used as bleachfield by the beguines.
The last living beguine in the Netherlands - Cornelia Catherina Frijters - died in 1990. The Begijnhof has a small museum, where one gets insight into the living of the beguines. Nowadays the houses around the courtyard can be rented, but still only by single women.

Belle photo !
I had heard of a song with beguine in the title - 'Begin the Beguine'?? No something else. 'Bejeune the Beguine'??? NO!!! I shall stop before it gets worse. Perhaps someone can help me out here. But at least I now know the origin of the name!
have a great new week:)
