Reformed church, built in 1858 in the water board style. The facade tower placed above the front building was added in 1879. Next to it is the catechism room GAN-OV13B-59.

The Reformed Church in Hedel was built around 1640 in a semi-Gothic transitional style on the foundations of the transept and choir of a larger cruciform church.

The church was restored between early 2000 and spring 2007. The restoration plan was drawn up by the architectural firm Jelle de Jong in Lemmer. That does not mean that there were no churchgoers in the church for seven years. First, the tower was restored. Then the exterior and interior of the church followed. And church services continued as much as possible. 18 gravestones were removed from under the floor. Two of these were very old. The squat (gallery) has disappeared. It was needed at the time when a liberal minister came to Wommels and many churchgoers from Wommels came to Kubaard. After an open house on 21 April 2007, the restored church was officially put back into use. (53-05/58-07)
