De toren van de Hersteld Hervormde Kerk te Staphorst werd gebouwd in 1763. De toren, die uit drie geledingen bestaat, werd in 1908 gerestaureerd. De oude kerk is afgebroken en in de jaren vijftig van de 20e eeuw vervangen door een geheel nieuw kerkgebouw, dat tegen de oude toren aan werd gebouwd. De oude kerkklok, die dateert uit 1512, bevindt zich niet meer in de toren, maar staat in het nabijgelegen plantsoen.
The tower of the Restored Reformed Church in Staphorst was built in 1763. The tower, which consists of three sections, was restored in 1908. The old church was demolished and around 1950 replaced by a completely new church building, which was built against the old tower. The old church bell, which dates from 1512, is not part of the tower anymore, but can be found in the nearby park.
