Schraalenburgh North Church, also known as North Church and as The Old North Reformed Church or Old Reformed Church, was founded 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.

The cemetery contains burials of parishioners up to 1911, and a list of interments has been transcribed on the Internet by Bob Winship.[3] As "North Church", the church was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 26, 1983.[1]
