On April 2, 1966, the church building was inaugurated as a new Reformed Church. The church replaced the older church in the centre of Oss, which was demolished after the move. Around 1978 the old church of the Reformed congregation on the Burgemeester Van den Elzenlaan in Oss had become too small and people started using the building of the Reformed congregation. A few years later, in 1980, a second church building was built behind the existing Reformed church building for the Reformed congregation. A few years later, only joint church services were held. In 1989 the Reformed Church and the Reformed Church federated. In addition, the church building was given the name Paaskerk and the annex has since been called Pentecost mound. In the years that followed, a new entrance and entrance hall were built that connected the two buildings. The non-oriented church building is a modern church in the style of post-war modernism. It has an eight-sided ground plan from which a quarter has been cut. In the centre is a tower of metal columns with a belfry. Inside, the building consists of two rooms next to the entrance, with the second room being used for smaller services.

The Reformed Church , also known as the Protestant Chapel , is a Protestant church in the Dutch town of Megchelen. It was built in the 18th century.

A Romanesque brick house of worship from the early 13th century. The church once had a tower but it was lost to war violence. With old, new facade from the 1960s. Also known as Haghekerke, Hogerkerken, Hoegekerk or Ollekerk.

Around 1200 the first church was founded in Kerkwerve. For the first centuries it was Roman Catholic. Shortly after the siege of Zierikzee around 1576 the Reformation began to break through on Schouwen-Duiveland. The residents of Kerkwerve joined the new doctrine. The damaged church was partly demolished and partly restored and made suitable for the Reformed church service. In the 1980s the exterior of the Dutch Reformed church was restored. Between 1992 and 2004 the interior was restored in phases. Finally the coats of arms of the Lords of Kleverskerke were given a makeover. They are hanging back in their place in the pew. And with this the restoration was completed on 22 October 2004.
