  • Welcome to Rösli – a unique life project by a Swiss-Belgian couple, ongoing since 2017. You wouldn’t think so, but they met neither in Switzerland nor in Belgium, but in Egypt. A few years ago, they got married in Brussels.

    Passionate about timeless design and genuine hospitality, they settled in Vilvoorde in 2002.

    Welkom on the Rösli

    a ship like no other...

    What is the Rösli?

    After having been transformed for about 2,5 years into a secured, multifunctional and neat ship that has kept the charm of the past, we are pleased to announce that Rösli is operational to host conferences, meetings, exhibitions, shows, pop-up projects, and so much more… on the water.

    Where is the Rösli?

    As Rösli is 55 m long, you cannot miss the ship. It was in front of an original location in Vilvoorde that reflects both the industrial past of the city and the urban culture of today, namely the Kruitfabriek.

    Since the work on the canal, we have moved to between the Salangaan Bridge and the Vilvoorde viaduct.

    What does Rösli mean?

    Rösli is in Swiss German and means “little rose”. For your convenience, we have decided to drop the umlaut (sign on the o) for the name of the website. We heard that it’ll be easier to find us on the web… And this is how to pronounce Rösli: Rε:sli (the ö is like the i from bird).
