Charming reconstruction church with tower.

The church is of architectural historical value as an authentic example of a church under water built around the middle of the nineteenth century, where the simplicity of construction and detailing is characteristic. The vault on the columns in the interior and the preserved main shape also contribute to that value. The church is part of church history, in particular the history of the reformed churches in North Holland.

In the years 1881-1884 the firm Ibach built an organ for the Reformed Church in Rhenoy. The instrument was built in the church by Adrianus van Ingen. Upon completion the Gemshorn 8' and the Trumpet of the Main Work were reserved. These were never installed again. In 1950 the firm De Koff & Zn. carried out a revision. They placed the third choir of the Sesquialter as an independent register on the reserved slide of the Trumpet 8'. The firm SF Blank restored the organ in 1990. The Sesquialter was restored. The slide of the Trumpet remained unoccupied.
