Important church in neo-Gothic-expressionist style, designed by Joseph Cuypers (1861 - 1949) and his son Pierre Cuypers Jr (1891 - 1982). Originally a chancel and nave with four bays, without a tower but with a roof turret on the west side.
Late neo-Gothic church with tower. Klazienaveen-Noord received a wooden auxiliary church in 1902 at the insistence of the evangelist Willem Braak-Hekke from Emmer-Compascuum. In 1923 this church was replaced by a stone church. The initiative came from the evangelist Willem de Weerd, who was financially supported by the Scholten family. De Weerd himself contributed to the financing by making the revenues of his book "De domeneer van turfland" available for the construction of the church. The first stone was laid in June 1922; the church was consecrated in 1923.
This piece of land on which the church stands was leased to Rehoboth by the Nieuw Echtense Veen Compagnie. The construction must have been completed in 1905, according to a cadastral map. The church of the Full Evangelical Services (Langestraat 205) is a straight-closed hall church from around 1905, with block plastering and a small facade tower. Neo-Gothic church with roof turret.
Modern church building without tower. Previously, the Apostolic Society used the "White Church" for some time.
