Originally built as Roman Catholic St. Ursula Church. Extremely important historical church building with high tower. The tower is the second highest church tower in the Netherlands, 109 m (the Dom in Utrecht is the highest at 112 m).

Nieuwe Kerk

Rijswijk, NL

Interesting modern church with tower. Built in 1965 as the Reformed Church "Light of the World" in the then new Steenvoorde district. Hall church with ancillary rooms on a partly elliptical floor plan and built in sober, partly sculptural forms, visible in the slightly curved and asymmetrically designed tower facade. Characteristic and monumental, so-called glass appliqué wall by J. Vegter from the construction period. It was decided that the Reformed Light of the World Church, built in 1965 by LP van der Gaag, would become the PKN church for that district. A new name for the church was also sought. The choice fell on "New Church". On October 10, 2004, the first celebration took place after the church was redesigned. The Dutch Reformed Reconciliation Church in this district was decommissioned around that time and converted into a health center, almost unrecognizably. Since October 2004, the Protestant Community of Rijswijk has only used the Old Church (historic village church) in addition to this New Church.

Nieuwe Kerk

Ermelo, NL

Large cross-shaped church with corner tower in business-expressionist style. 2009 renovation interior, especially ceilings and grounds outside.

Important design by architect HH ​​Dansdorp, whose main work is the neoclassical Roman Catholic St. Joseph Church in Haarlem. Decommissioned as Dutch Reformed Church in the early 1970s.
