Dates from the end of the 17th century. The building was a primary school from 1866–1909. The original Elburg suffered from floods in the Middle Ages. In 1392–1396 a new city was built further inland. It was built using a grid system. The city became also a stronghold. The church was only moved into the new city after completion, so the church is not in the centre of the city, but close to the city wall. Elburg was a Hanseatic city, but became poorer in later years, so the city is well preserved.
