Neo-Romanesque church with roof turret. Built as a Reformed church, protected by the State because of the single-manual organ that was made in 1821 by A. van Gruisen from Leeuwarden for a church that was still unknown. In 1920 it was moved to Donkerbroek by Bakker & Timmenga from Leeuwarden. The case and the mechanism were renewed on that occasion. In 1964 the company Gebr. Reil (Heerde) expanded it with a mixer. The company Bakker & Timmenga restored it in 1997.

The Reformed Church in Rottevalle, like the rectory next door, was built in 1937 to a design by T. van der Kooi from Drachten in a building style characteristic of the thirties. The church shows strong similarities with the Reformed Church in Twijzel. The church replaces a church building from 1874, the memorial stone of which is built into the outer wall of the extension of the meeting room with the inscription: "EBENHAEZER / (...) / on 1 March 1874, the first stone was laid at this building. / (...) //. The church is set well back from the public road and is separated from it by a garden wall with a pipe that runs along the front of the parsonage. The church garden thus created is furnished with lawns on either side of the access path and separated from the adjacent plots by privet hedges. The church was modified at the rear in 1950 and 1971 by enlarging the consistory, meeting rooms and modifying the front hall.

Hall church with roof turret, built to replace the hall church from 1861 on the Rivierdijk.

Built as a Reformed Church in 1905. At that time it was a neo-Gothic church with a roof turret. In 1935 this church was renovated. Under the leadership of architect GJ van der Top the church was extensively renovated in 1959 and it looked like a new church, including a new small tower. In 1986 a youth cellar, a hall and a church council room were added. Between August and November 2002 the hall was greatly enlarged by filling the space between the church and the rectory. (49-03)
