History
The church was built in the period 1872-1873, and was dedicated to Saint Donatus of Arezzo. It was opened on August 7 (the feast day of Saint Donatus) in 1873.[2] The building then bore the name 'Holy Donatus Church' (Dutch: Heilige Donatuskerk).

From 2015 to 2016, the church was converted into a multifunctional building with a theater hall, an entrance hall with a bar, and a few smaller rooms. The building was renamed 'Theaterchurch Bemmel' (Dutch: Theaterkerk Bemmel) and was opened in October 2016.
