The building consists of a Romanesque single-aisled nave (12th century) and a late Gothic choir with two side chapels and a sacristy. The nave walls are built of primeval stone up to three-quarters of their height; each has a round-arched gate closed with brick. The vaults, which collapsed in 1747, were re-installed in the choir during the restoration in 1961; the nave has retained a wooden pointed barrel vault. Oak pulpit (18th century).

The village church in Eelde is originally a Roman Catholic church, which was dedicated to St. Gangulphus. In 1598, stadtholder Willem Lodewijk ordered the conversion to the "reformed" religion by means of a "plakkaet". The name Reformed was not officially introduced until 1815 and the church continued to be called the Dutch Reformed Church until 2005. Since October 2005, the village church has been the church building where the Protestant community of Eelde-Paterswolde holds its weekly services. The Protestant community of Eelde-Paterwolde was created in 2005 from the merger between the Reformed community of Eelde and the Reformed Church of Paterswolde. In the single-nave church from the 14th century, tuff stones from an older church have been incorporated, particularly around the entrance. This earlier church stood on the same site and was already built in the 11th century. The church is built east-west and has a rectangular nave of 8.5 x 28 meters. A narrower, three-sided closed choir has been added to the east side. The stone choir vault was replaced by a wooden ceiling at the beginning of the 18th century. The wooden ceiling was painted with an allegorical representation of life and death, joy and mourning. (see photo below) The painting was probably made by Hermannus Collenius (1650-1723) The pulpit in the church dates from 1621. The wooden pews were replaced by chairs during the restoration of 1973. There are still four gentlemen's pews in the church. In the choir is the gentlemen's pew of the Oosterbroek manor house; against the north wall are two gentlemen's pews of the Lemferdinge manor house. It could not be determined to which manor house the fourth pew belonged. Furthermore, there is a wrought iron holder with a copper baptismal font in the church. During the restoration in 2000, the plasterwork in the church was completely removed and a consecration cross was revealed under one of the old layers of plaster. This cross dates from the pre-Reformation period and was restored and conditioned as far as possible. The cross is located on the wall next to the lord's pew opposite the pulpit. Until 1989, the church was equipped with a mechanical tower clock by H. Detgen in Groningen. Made in 1870. The clock was loaned to the Bell Foundry Museum in Heiligerlee in 1989.
