Bruges coachmen are not driving out this weekend

It has everything to do with the warm weather. There has long been an agreement not to allow horse-drawn carriages to drive through the city center as soon as it is thirty degrees warm. This is to respect the animal welfare of the horses. And that will be the case this weekend. Today it is 29 degrees warm in Bruges and the horses are still riding. Although there are fewer than on a normal day. The animals are also refreshed between rides. From Monday 15 August, the temperature will again drop below thirty degrees in Bruges, and then the carriages will leave again.
