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

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.

The tower dates from 1900. In the church there is a pulpit from 1760, originating from the old church. On 1 January 2015 a large fire raged in this church. After this fire, in consultation with the RCE, among others, the church was "rebuilt". This reconstruction actually involved an almost completely new construction .

Reformed Church and tower on spacious churchyard. Small church rebuilt in 1850 in a characteristic style for that period with plaster window frames and plastered fields above. Brick saddle roof tower with low extended staircase tower; tower vault on sandstone corbels. Epitaph from 1550 in the tower portal. 17th century pulpit tub carved into the church; younger rear bulkhead and sounding board. An 18th century gravestone and a bell from 1629 in the tower. Organ from 1889, wind chest by the Gebr. Franssen, partly older pipework.

The church was restored between early 2000 and spring 2007. The restoration plan was drawn up by the architectural firm Jelle de Jong in Lemmer. That does not mean that there were no churchgoers in the church for seven years. First, the tower was restored. Then the exterior and interior of the church followed. And church services continued as much as possible. 18 gravestones were removed from under the floor. Two of these were very old. The squat (gallery) has disappeared. It was needed at the time when a liberal minister came to Wommels and many churchgoers from Wommels came to Kubaard. After an open house on 21 April 2007, the restored church was officially put back into use. (53-05/58-07)

NH Church. Three-sided closed hall church with pilasters and round arch windows, early 19th century. A two-manual organ, made in 1872 by H. Knipscheer and placed in 1873 by his foreman AMT van Ingen in the Protestant church in Koudekerk aan den Rijn. Moved to Boxmeer in 1926 by G. van Leeuwen. Bell frame with bell by anonymous founder, 1922, diam. 70 cm.

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.
