On April 2, 1966, the church building was inaugurated as a new Reformed Church. The church replaced the older church in the centre of Oss, which was demolished after the move. Around 1978 the old church of the Reformed congregation on the Burgemeester Van den Elzenlaan in Oss had become too small and people started using the building of the Reformed congregation. A few years later, in 1980, a second church building was built behind the existing Reformed church building for the Reformed congregation. A few years later, only joint church services were held. In 1989 the Reformed Church and the Reformed Church federated. In addition, the church building was given the name Paaskerk and the annex has since been called Pentecost mound. In the years that followed, a new entrance and entrance hall were built that connected the two buildings. The non-oriented church building is a modern church in the style of post-war modernism. It has an eight-sided ground plan from which a quarter has been cut. In the centre is a tower of metal columns with a belfry. Inside, the building consists of two rooms next to the entrance, with the second room being used for smaller services.

The Reformed Church , also known as the Protestant Chapel , is a Protestant church in the Dutch town of Megchelen. It was built in the 18th century.

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

The church was built in 1860 (see the facade stone in the left side wall). Since then, the front facade has not been changed, but the windows in the side walls, which illuminate the service rooms, have. These were renewed in the 1930s, but the old situation can still be recognized. The two diagonally placed closing sides also have renewed windows that were probably installed in the 1930s. The interior will have been renovated in the same period. The current wooden vault shows the characteristics of that period (1930s character). What the original vault looked like can no longer be determined.

The single-nave neo-Gothic church built in 1887 with a three-sided choir closure under a saddle roof is built against the late 15th-century tower; the church and tower are strikingly situated near the Waaldijk. Built in brick and on a plinth, a four-bay long nave with buttresses cut between the windows and the sides of the choir with natural stone covering on the cutting and at the top; decorative brickwork molding under the gutter; wide lancet-shaped windows with tracery and in a frame of bright red brick and accents in natural stone; stained glass in a pointed diamond motif in green and white, along the edges of the windows strips in red and blue glass; on the roof covered with braised tiles three dormers covered with slates and provided with a piron; on the north side of the nave an extended entrance with double wooden door with fittings, set in a bright red brick frame; there also, the consistory room built against the tower under a hipped saddle roof with dormer; in the consistory room large windows with cross-bar division and slightly recessed round-arched fields above; the frame of the fields and the window styles in bright red stone; on the south side of the tower a mortuary house. In the interior a wooden barrel vault with tie rods and on cove, the ribs resting on consoles with decorative carvings; hexagonal pulpit and rear bulkhead with Gothic decorations from 1864, organ balcony on three simple wooden columns; wainscoting, gentlemen's pews and general pew plan made of wood; two late 19th-century psalm and hymn boards; two twelve-arm copper crowns from the construction period with tronies on the inside. At the entrance to the church two memorial stones from 1849 and 1887. Intact single-manual organ, made in 1857 by H. Knipscheer from Amsterdam. The neo-Gothic village church, built in 1887, is of cultural and architectural-historical value due to its location and the intactness of its interior and exterior, so that protection as a national monument is justified.

Memorial stone in the south-east facade 1753. Pulpit 17th century. Copper baptismal cymbal arm with cymbal 17th century; copper precentor's lectern 18th century. Psalm board 1769.
