Reformed Church. One of the oldest houses of worship built for the Reformed Church, around 1840, consisting of a simple hall church with round-arched windows and an entrance door in a simple classicist frame, next to which is a parsonage with a storey and windows with six- and eight-pane sliding windows.

Initially the name was "Gereformeerde Kerk van Nieuw Dordrecht". At the end of 1938 a proposal was made to change this name to "Gereformeerde kerk van Klazienaveen". "Among the incoming documents at the meeting of 14 November 1939 a letter stating that the name change has been approved." At a meeting of 22 April 1891 in Nieuw Amsterdam there was a proposal: "with regard to the matter of Nieuw-Dordrecht the church council expresses the wish that, given the circumstances, it is necessary to establish an independent congregation". The church was initially given the name of Nieuw Dordrecht, because a brother wanted to build the church at cafe Lufting on the road from Klazienaveen to Nieuw Dordrecht.

Iconic "Refodome" with high roof turret.

The Eben Haëzerkerk is a Christian Reformed Church built in 1927. In December 2002, the organ in the church was removed and replaced by an electronic organ.

On 11 December 1913, 'De Gereformeerde Kerk te Nieuwlande' was instituted. On 8 June 1914, the first stone was laid and in August of that year 'Eben Haëzer' was put into use. The well-known reformed resistance fighter Johannes Post hid people in hiding in this church during the Second World War. The hiding place can still be seen. The Stichting Het Drentse Landschap will investigate whether the church can be preserved in some way. Nieuwlande played a special role in the war and received a Yad Vashem award for it. Of course, Nieuwlande wants to keep that past alive. 'The new destination for the reformed church in the village can play an important role in this'. It is not without reason that the church is located on the Johannes Poststraat.
