Schraalenburgh North Church, also known as North Church and as The Old North Reformed Church or Old Reformed Church, was founded in 1801 as a Dutch Reformed Church, in present-day Dumont, Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. The congregation was made up of those who originally were members of the South Schraalenburgh Church.[3]

The cemetery contains burials of parishioners up to 1911, and a list of interments has been transcribed on the Internet by Bob Winship.[4] As "North Church", the church was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 26, 1983.[4][1][5]
