The foundation stone for this Mennonite meeting house was laid on 15 June 1850. The official opening took place on New Year's Day 1851. The building was restored between 1994 and 2000. The interior was restored in 2008. The meeting house that was used before 1850 is located on Koningsstraat . It is now a residential building, but the windows on the side clearly show that it used to be a church. (60-08)

In 1819, the Mennonite communities of Obergum, Rasquert and Den Hoorn founded a new church in Mensingeweer. But when the province of Groningen planned a road in the fifties of the 20th century on the site of the church building and parsonage, they moved to Eenrum where a new church building was built on the J.J.Willingestraat. The name of the community then became: "Mennonite community of Mensingeweer in Eenrum".
