Auxiliary church of the Buchten and Born parish. There is some misunderstanding among various church collectors about the Geloftekapel. It is often heard that the chapel was built in 1947 as a Dutch Reformed chapel and later became a Roman Catholic chapel. However, nothing could be further from the truth. It is a misconception that the chapel was a Dutch Reformed chapel. The Roman Catholic chapel / auxiliary church of Our Lady of the Rosary at Illikhoven 67 was built in 1947 to a design by the architectural firm Swinkels and Salemans. Due to secularization, the church was withdrawn from worship in 2012 and was purchased by a private individual who set up an external living room there.

This neo-Romanesque cross basiliekwas built between 1908 and 1911 after a design by Jos Cuypers and Jan Stuyt. Cuypers had already started in 1898 with the construction of the Sint Bavo in Haarlem, which was not completed until 1930, and in his architectural style clearly meant a transition from the neo-Gothic to a new church architecture.

The church of Onze Lieve Vrouw van de Berg Carmel was built in 1931. It is currently a Catholic place of worship.

On June 10, 1959, the first pile was driven for the church building of the Apostolic Society on the Korfmakersstraat in Tusschendijken.

The windows in the long plane had stained glass windows with decorative flower-like patterns. The building was suddenly demolished in the summer of 2022. Perhaps not a masterpiece, but an elegant and usable building.
