Built as a Reformed Church in 1905. At that time it was a neo-Gothic church with a roof turret. In 1935 this church was renovated. Under the leadership of architect GJ van der Top the church was extensively renovated in 1959 and it looked like a new church, including a new small tower. In 1986 a youth cellar, a hall and a church council room were added. Between August and November 2002 the hall was greatly enlarged by filling the space between the church and the rectory. (49-03)

This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

The foundation stone was laid on 25 April 1953. In August 1972 it was decided to expand the church. The church hall was enlarged and in addition a large hall with a kitchen, a hall, a cloakroom and a toilet group was built. In 1973 the extension was put into use.

The Reformed Church in Rottevalle, like the rectory next door, was built in 1937 to a design by T. van der Kooi from Drachten in a building style characteristic of the thirties. The church shows strong similarities with the Reformed Church in Twijzel. The church replaces a church building from 1874, the memorial stone of which is built into the outer wall of the extension of the meeting room with the inscription: "EBENHAEZER / (...) / on 1 March 1874, the first stone was laid at this building. / (...) //. The church is set well back from the public road and is separated from it by a garden wall with a pipe that runs along the front of the parsonage. The church garden thus created is furnished with lawns on either side of the access path and separated from the adjacent plots by privet hedges. The church was modified at the rear in 1950 and 1971 by enlarging the consistory, meeting rooms and modifying the front hall.

The (old) Reformed Church of Beekbergen is one of the oldest Reformed Churches in the Netherlands. In 1835, the year after the secession, a meeting was held in Apeldoorn, attended by various representatives from Lieren and Oosterhuizen. The pastor was Rev. Brummelman from Hattem, who strongly stimulated the secession in the East Veluwe. The secession was preceded by house meetings. These were meetings of members of the State Church, the Dutch Reformed Church, who were concerned about the freedom of doctrine. In 1840, the seceded church of Apeldoorn, or rather the church of Apeldoorn-Noord, received a minister: Rev. Poppe de Wit. He also served as minister for Beekbergen and Teuge. In 1849 it was decided to build a church building on the Tullekensmolenweg, at no. 106. This was put into use on 21 April 1850. There were 150 seats in this building. The church budget in 1851 was f 356.21. The minister's salary in 1854 was f 225.--. On 31 July 1853 the congregation of Beekbergen received its first minister, namely candidate M. Sipkes.
