Built as a Reformed church. Interesting modern church with tower.

In the sixties, the current church was built to a design by architect G. Steen from 1960. The new construction took place on the grounds of the old school. The work was carried out by construction company H. Westra from Franeker. The building was finally completed in 1966 under the architecture of the architectural firm Steen en Tuinhof. An illuminated cross was placed on the tower. On 31 January 1969, the renovated organ was put into use. In 1969-70, a new rectory was also built. In 1972, the building of the nursery school next to the church and the associated grounds were purchased. A parking lot was constructed on the grounds, while the building itself was rented to a music association. This situation still exists today. In 1986, major maintenance was carried out on both the church and the rectory. The remarkable elevator in the building, which connects the meeting rooms and canteen downstairs with the church hall upstairs, was installed at the end of the eighties.

Reformed church building, cruciform church with small spire. Even before the war, attempts were made to create a new church building to replace the existing Reformed church from 1859. A new rectory was the result, but the war prevented further plans. The originally desired high tower was not permitted. In the end, it became a small spire. The executing architectural firm was F. van der Laan from Delfzijl, who also designed the 22 narrow stained glass windows. The opening took place on 24 June 1953.
