The building plans for a church in the Corpus Den Hoorn district (Groningen) date from 1958. The design was by the architectural firm Haykens & Jansma from Groningen. The source of inspiration was the work of the architect Le Corbusier. Characteristics of this are the black jointed bands in the interior and exterior walls of the church (the 'belts around the church'), the narrow, high windows and the dimensions of the church hall. The construction was carried out by the construction company Meijering and Benus, commissioned by the Reformed Church of Groningen. The church was put into use on 9 April 1965. In 1990, the Chapel Church merged with the Immanuel Church. The chapel was a church building on the corner of the Paterswoldseweg and the Concourslaaan. In 1999, the Stadspark Church was closed and the congregation merged with that of the Immanuel Church. In 2001, the church was renovated again on the inside. In 1998, the youth building IKO was built behind the Immanuëlkerk and put into use. On 1 January 1993, the congregation of the Opstandingskerk (PC Hooftlaan) merged with the congregation of the Immanuelkerk. The building on the PC Hooftlaan was sold to the Vrijgemaakt Gereformeerde Kerk.
