The host
The host
Mickey Bosschert is the founder of Heritage Europe and, together with her husband Bob, she set up Reliplan in 1995: an international organisation specialising in the acquisition, sale and repurposing of religious buildings – such as monasteries, chapels, churches and other community buildings. Reliplan operates in four European countries and has more than 900 transformations of church buildings and other cultural and community heritage sites to its credit. The Pieter Stuyvesant Church is a fine example of this.
