Netherlands South Holland Tender

The province of South Holland will continue to boost the re-use of religious heritage in 2021 as the Provincial Council decided on 11 November 2020. In the footsteps of the 3 current drivers for the re-use of vacant national monuments a new driver will enter the service of the province of South Holland at the beginning of 2021.Successful repurposingOver the past 2 years three drivers have worked to redesign vacant national monuments in our heritage-rich province. And with success Various religious agricultural and industrial monuments have been successfully re-tuned or on the way to new functions. In addition we have noticed that there is a great need especially among church boards for help with the formation of ideas and the actual approach to re-use of empty church buildings. The driving force of religious heritage has rendered his services to church boards in Voorburg Lisse Sassenheim Rotterdam Brielle Voorhout Zwijndrecht and Leiden among others. For example the Onze Lieve Vrouw Ten Hemelopneming church in Voorburg will eventually be given a residential function.The Heritage House South Holland also plays a role in tackling religious heritage through the support it offers municipalities in drawing up church visions as well as in preserving the memories associated with the historical function of their church buildings.With the continuation of the booster function the province expects to be able to take further steps in successful redevelopment in 2021 and subsequent years. Where there will also be an eye for sustainability.Together to successful re-useDo you own a monumental church building in South Holland that is going to lose its function or has already lost its function Or is there an empty church near you Vacancy often leads to decline and deterioration and detracts from the quality of life in a neighborhood neighborhood or village.
