Interesting reconstruction church. Hall church without tower, but remarkably situated. Also used as ecumenical student church until 2002. On Sunday afternoons also used by the Full Gospel Church Eljakim.

Hall church in neo-Romanesque forms, with a roof turret on the front facade. Since 2010 (after the Mennonite Meeting House in IJmuiden was decommissioned), this has been the Mennonite Church for "De IJmond". In 2012, extensive attention was paid to the centenary of this church building. Among other things, with an exhibition about the Danish artist Thorvaldsen.

The Doopsgezinde Kerk (Mennonite Church) was initially built as a clandestine church in 1617. In 1856, the buildings on the Koningsweg that hid the church from view were demolished and the church came into view. In 1854, the church received its current facade with round-arched windows. This facade was designed by CW Bruinvis, city archivist of Alkmaar. It is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

Large church with roof turret. Extension in 1983.

Frontage of the Mennonite Church. Above the gate passage, next to which two six-pane windows, floor with three such windows. Facade closed off by block moulding. Hidden church in a three-sided closed hall building covered by a barrel vault from 1829. Simple pulpit. Originally a single-manual organ made in 1872 by the Gebr. Adema from Leeuwarden. Modified in 1920 by Bakker and Timmenga.

Built as a Reformed Church. As such out of use around 1974, when a new Reformed Church was put into use elsewhere in Schagen.

In 1996, the beautiful church from 1853 was demolished because it had become too expensive to maintain. The adjacent buildings, which were also owned by the Mennonite Community, were then restored and converted into a new church.

Neo-church without tower. New front facade in 1950.
