Dutch Reformed Church. Closed-end hall church with a saddle roof between gables from 1751. Originally a garrison church. It was a multifunctional building: the attic served as a storage space for ammunition and hay, and behind the church were two horse stables. In the 19th century, the church lost its function as a garrison church: the attics disappeared and the interior was given a vault. At the back of the church, the prisoner's bench for soldiers in detention is still located. The church was restored in 2001.
