According to a commemorative stone dating from 1635, a church once stood on the same site. Inside the church are a seventeenth-century pulpit and a church organ from 1900, built by the Van Oeckelen brothers. In the tower, which dates from 1859 and is therefore older than the church building itself, hangs a bell from 1627. The building is owned by the Nicolaus Gillot Foundation, named after the church’s last minister.
