In its current form, the church of Engelum is a three-sided closed hall church with a tower of three sections with a constricted spire. The tower, which is not accessible from the church, was sheathed in 1887 and is said to still have thirteenth-century masonry from the original church. According to the memorial stone in the south wall of the tower (inv. no. 16), the rest of the church was also renovated in 1887. Incidentally, the nave and choir were said to have been rebuilt in 1773.

The previous church was destroyed by fire in 1928.

Reformed church built in 1916 to a design by architect J. Beijlevelt from Amsterdam. An anonymous donor from the Soest area made the foundation of the church possible through a donation. The peat colony canal village, located in one of the younger development areas, emerged from the foundation of the Reformed Church in 1915.

The 19th century tower is the youngest part, the choir is early 16th century. But then the nave: tuff stone and completely Romanesque, clearly recognizable by the arched frieze decoration and the small round arched windows on the north side. For more light, larger windows have been installed in the south wall. Inside is a remarkable church council bench, perhaps a former communion bench.
