Built as a Reformed church. Renovated in 1929, damaged by storm in 2000. This church has a fascinating history. During the renovation of the original church building in 1929, interesting early modern stained glass windows were installed, both on both sides and in the front facade. The window in the front facade shows the dates 1844 - 1994, this on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the Reformed Church in this village. The console of the organ is on the gallery above the entrance.
