Only in 1972 did the true nature of this little church come to light, literally. During a restoration, a layer of plaster was removed and tuff-stone walls appeared on the west side. Proof that the church does not date from the 15th century, as once thought, but from the 12th century!
The contrast in the walls is striking. The western half is grey with tuff stone, while the eastern part is lively red from brick. In 1543 the church was extended in brick and it gained its three-sided choir closure. The sturdy façade tower with a pinched spire was added later, in 1877, designed by P. Helder.
Inside, the interior is beautifully simple. Green and white set the tone, from the benches to the baptism rail. Even the fine Hardorff organ from 1877 is finished in these colours.
