Modern church with small tower.

In 1972, this church, built as a Walloon Church, was taken over by the Christian Reformed Church. The building consists of two parts: the church space is located in the high part and the consistory in the lower part. The facades are made of concrete blocks. Light enters through high-placed windows in the front facade and the side facades. The front facade stands out because the building mass recedes in relation to the shell. The spatial layout of the church building consists of an undivided space. Against the entrance wall there is a wall placed perpendicular to the facade along which a concrete staircase leads to a modest organ balcony. Various ancillary rooms are situated along the left side facade, such as the former and current consistory room. The building has architectural-historical value as a good and reasonably well-preserved example of Protestant church architecture from the first decades after the Second World War. The church is also important as a representative in the oeuvre of architect Knijtijzer, who played a leading role in post-war Dutch architecture.
