Designed in a Dutch Renaissance style, the cornerstone of this building was laid by General Louis Botha on 18 July 1904 and came into use on 24 February 1905. It is the oldest Nederduitsch Gevormde church building in Pretoria and its history is closely related with the development of the three Afrikaner sister churches in the old Transvaal. It was declared a National Monument under old NMC legislation on 14 March 1980.
