The first protestant church on Aruba was erected in 1846, and still stands in the shadow of this new, larger and more modern structure located at the head of the Wilhelminastraat in Oranjestad.

Together with the adjacent Old Protestant Church, it forms a unique architectural ensemble of significant value for the Wilhelminastraat.

Pastor Ernst Stutterheim perpetuates Calvinist traditions in Aruba, where Catholicism is dominant.

The church is always closed except for one hour during the church service at 10:30 on Sunday morning.
