Bethelkerk, Reformed church in Geldermalsen, Netherlands.
Bethelkerk is a reformed church building in Geldermalsen designed with modern architecture and red brick construction. The interior has a spacious main hall with a contemporary layout that serves the local faith community.
This building opened in 2003 and replaced an earlier church from 1969 that had become too small for the growing congregation. The new structure was built to provide adequate space for the reformed community's needs.
The congregation maintains traditional Reformed practices, incorporating the Boogaard organ installed in 2004 during their regular services.
The building is easily accessible from the town center and has adequate parking available for visitors. It functions as an active community space, so it is best explored during quieter periods outside of regular service times.
The interior contains two bells that came from the demolished Sint-Thomas van Aquinokerk in Amsterdam. These bells create a direct link to another chapter in the history of Dutch religious buildings.
