Doopsgezinde kerk
A Mennonite church was built at Mensingeweer, dedicated on 4 April 1819. It was served by a series of freshly-appointed young ministers from the Amsterdam seminary, but in the 20th century it was increasingly difficult to find ministers willing to serve there and it was demolished in 1959 in favor of a new church in Eenrum.
