history

The house of God has its origins as the house chapel of the aristocratic Hof van Ravestein. In 1713 it was prepared as a Schotse Kerk for Scottish merchants . In 1755 the chapel was taken over by the Lutheran congregation and enlarged; it has a sermon pulpit from 1756.

In the community, services are still celebrated in the form of the Lutheran liturgy.
