Kerk van Bulskamp in motion: where heritage writes a new chapter

As an anchor point in the flat landscape of Bulskamp & De Moeren near Veurne, the church of Bulskamp brought generations of people together around faith for a long time. Come and experience and discover religious heritage in transformation. At Tijdens Open Monumentdag you will discover the neo-Gothic church with its classified tower and organ. During guided tour moments, church board members talk about both the construction history and heritage value, as well as the religious significance of the church. With some explanation, the guides let you experience the newly realized functions. Afterwards, they take the visitors along to the options still to be developed and their associated locations in the church. Your visit not only makes the past visible but also shows how, with a small budget, one can give valuable religious heritage a purpose that meets local community needs and tourist requirements, without losing the church's unique character.
