Remonstrant church (1896) in neo-Renaissance style, by Leonard Couvée. Original interior, including Van Dam organ from 1900. There used to be a clandestine church here (1639) hidden in a former malt house. Church can be reached via gatehouse with upstairs apartments (1909), designed by Delft architect Anton van der Lee. Church is named after poet and pastor Peter Augustus de Génestet (1829-1861). His portrait medallion adorns the top of the gate. Church is now privately owned and is being converted into a cultural centre.
