Interesting reconstruction church without a tower.

Neo-Romanesque hall church without tower. The church and rectory have been designated as iconic buildings by the municipality of Leerdam. Three renovations have taken place, including a major expansion of the church hall in 2008.

Hall church, built in 1906 with round arch windows and short lower transepts. Small stone facade tower, crowned by pyramid-shaped spire. Interior changed in 1951. During a change to the interior in 1992, the pulpit from the construction period was replaced by a pulpit in the shape of the bow of a skûtsje.

Interesting octagonal reconstruction church. Built as a Reformed church. Replaced an old Reformed church elsewhere in Bolnes.

The Reformed Church in Rottevalle, like the rectory next door, was built in 1937 to a design by T. van der Kooi from Drachten in a building style characteristic of the thirties. The church shows strong similarities with the Reformed Church in Twijzel. The church replaces a church building from 1874, the memorial stone of which is built into the outer wall of the extension of the meeting room with the inscription: "EBENHAEZER / (...) / on 1 March 1874, the first stone was laid at this building. / (...) //. The church is set well back from the public road and is separated from it by a garden wall with a pipe that runs along the front of the parsonage. The church garden thus created is furnished with lawns on either side of the access path and separated from the adjacent plots by privet hedges. The church was modified at the rear in 1950 and 1971 by enlarging the consistory, meeting rooms and modifying the front hall.

Hall church with roof turret, built to replace the hall church from 1861 on the Rivierdijk.

Church building of the Christian Separated Congregation, later Christian Reformed Church. The society that later in 1892 became part of the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands.

In 1836, 411 members left the Reformed Church of Almkerk and Emmikhoven to found their own church community. The meetings took place in houses and barns. Under the name Christian Separated Church of Almkerk and Emmikhoven, the church community was recognized on November 28, 1840. The meeting place, the barn of Branderhorst on the Kil, was replaced by the barn of Jan den Dekker, at the top of the sidewalk of the Straatweg in Nieuwendijk. In the year 1860, the church barn made way for a church building on approximately the same location.
