Charming church building, with tower, in ± chalet style. Nicely preserved interior. As a Reformed Church (congregation) in the autumn of 2011 merged with the nearby historical Dutch Reformed Village Church (congregation), to form the local "Protestant community in Koudekerk aan den Rijn and Hazerswoude-Rijndijk". Since then, this church has been called "Ontmoetingskerk", and the Village Church has been renamed "Brugkerk". Both church buildings are still in active use. In January 2012, the centenary of this church building was festively celebrated. An anniversary book was also published on this occasion.

Sober modern church in the southwestern expansion district of Dukenburg. Built in ecumenical cooperation as Dutch Reformed, Reformed and Roman Catholic churches.

Built as a Reformed Church. Three-aisled pseudo-basilica with tower from 1870. The exterior shows a very eclectic round arch style with remarkably shaped buttresses. The interior, however, is still quite pronounced neoclassical in character with its heavy columns and stucco barrel vault. Galleries have been installed in the side aisles. Little remains of the original interior. Organ from 1873 by P. Flaes, extended in 1986 by Scheuerman & Zoon (Rotterdam) with a free pedal.

The bell tower has disappeared (see the difference in Images Exterior below).
