Reformed church

Rozenburg, NL

The Reformed Church in Rozenburg was instituted on 15 March 1855 and on 13 May 1888. In December 1944, a small part of the congregation declared itself Free. This is how the Reformed Church (Liberated) in Rozenburg was founded. The church building at Emmastraat 75 was built in the 1950s on a plot of land between the back gardens of two parallel streets. Partly due to its recessed location, the building is hidden between the surrounding buildings. The architect of the building was A. Warnaar in Maasland. In 1973, the church building was expanded on both sides. In 1983, the church building was expanded again for more spacious meeting facilities. The attention of the interior, which appears square due to the widening, is drawn to the organ front that has been expanded opposite the large church window.
