Jan Breydel Stadium is their shrine, offering a capacity of 29,062 seats. However, they have to share it with city rival Club Brugge KV. The club was founded back in 1899 in the Belgian city of Bruges in the north-west of the country. This was after Vlaamsche FC de Bruges and Rapid FC merged to form Cercle Sportif Brugeois, as the new club was then called.
