The church dates from the second half of the 15th century and was originally connected to the tower. At that time, the building had the tower, a low nave and a high choir. Around 1592, part of the nave was destroyed (siege of Coevorden). The remaining part of the nave was brought to the same height as the choir in 1628 and the west facade was then bricked up. Since then, the church and tower have been separated. Of the Gothic church, only the ruined eastern part and the freestanding tower (ca. 1450 - 1500) remain. The nave is said to have collapsed during the Eighty Years' War - or was the church never finished due to lack of money? When the church was plastered in 1862, the furniture, including two 17th century pews, remained reasonably intact. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

In 1691 the old building was demolished, in that year a new building was put out to tender by grietman Hessel Vegelin of Claerbergen. The current pulpit probably also dates from that time, because according to experts it is from the 17th century. The appearance of the church was distinguished, so that a travelling artist Cornelis Pronk immortalized the church in 1732. The church and tower were covered with blue tiles. The building remained standing until 1915. It was demolished and a new building was built on the foundations. Money was collected for the renovation by means of subscription lists among the parishioners. After the demolition a new church was built

In 1296, a parish in Sint Kruis was first mentioned, which was subordinate to the Ter Doest Abbey. Due to flooding, partly as a result of the Geuzen breaching the dikes in 1584 to stop the Spanish troops, the area was flooded and was not drained again until 1651. The current church building dates largely from the 14th century and initially consisted of a single-nave church with a tower. In 1467 and 1483, the church was enlarged to a three-nave church with a choir and transept. This church was badly damaged during the Dutch Revolt, but in 1652 it was restored to serve as a Reformed church building. What remained was a single-nave church with a straight-ended nave and the tower. Another renovation took place in 1872. In 1944, the church was badly damaged by war violence and was restored in 1948-1949.

The main user of this church building since 2004 has been the Restored Reformed Church.
