The original church building of the Free Congregation was designed by architect G.B. Salm. This architect, known to be conservative, was commissioned to design the church after winning an invited competition. The building was opened in 1880 and was in use as a church until 1965. Paradiso has been housed here since 1968.

The building consists of three main elements: the front part with the central entrance, perpendicular to this the rectangular nave and behind that the semicircular apse. The main building material for the construction of the building is brick, with orange-red bricks emphasising the windows and blind niches.

Since 1968 the building has been painted twice, the last time entirely black. The paint was removed by blasting, leaving a pockmarked layer on the bricks, which made them susceptible to moisture and frost damage. Research has shown that the expected life span of these bricks is at least 50 years. It was therefore decided to restore the facade conservatively with a blend of three colours. To replace the large number of bricks

of a different format, new bricks were specially formed and baked. Ornamental bricks and special, coloured restoration mortar were used for restorations.Wherever possible natural stone was preserved, repaired and doweled. A number of corbel pieces and parts of the natural stone bands and lintels have been renovated.

The high sound volume that Paradiso produced caused vibrations that loosen the connections between glass and lead profiles. The existing secondary windows were installed with too little ventilation causing condensation on the stained glass. This stained glass has been restored. Due to the coarseness of the existing wooden secondary window and the opacity of the lexan, the stained glass was hardly visible. With the new secondary windows with thin steel profiles and clear, non-reflecting, sound insulating glass, the original image of the front facade has been restored. These steel frames are formed in such a way that the cavity between secondary window and stained glass is ventilated while maintaining the sound insulation.
