In 1634 the Protestant community was allowed to build its own church. After being destroyed during the French occupation (1677), the church was rebuilt in 1680. In 1684 the bell tower was built and the ringing of the bells was officially authorized.
In 1808 the floor was raised. This was necessary to prevent frequent flooding of the church. The occasion was a difference of opinion between the church and a miller. From time to time he closed the locks of the two nearby rivers, after which the church was flooded.
