The Goede Herderkerk was built in 1965, based on designs by W. Ingwersen of the architectural firm C. van der Bom and W. Ingwersen. The church strongly resembles Ingwersen's design for the Maranathakerk in Nijmegen from 1963. The church is characterised by its almost expressionistically upward-reaching corner spire. There is a freestanding bell tower. The walls are very thick and have slot and slit windows.
