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.
