The foundation stone for the church of the Reformed Church on Remisestraat was laid on 28 November 1931. The church was put into use at the end of March 1932. The interior was renovated in 1975 and a meeting room and a consistory room were added in 1985. The building with 140 seats became too small. In the spring of 2004, permission was obtained to expand the building with 75 seats. It was hoped that the expansion would be realized in the first half of 2004. The church was put into use again on Thursday 5 May 2005. And it now also bears a name: Adullam Church.

The Adventkerk is a Dutch Reformed Church built in 1958 and designed by architect Sijmons, KL Dzn. It is an example of religious Brutalist architecture. It is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

The Christus Koningkerk in the Mariahoeve district formed one parish with the Mariakerk (Immaculate Heart of Mary) in the Marlot district. The church was withdrawn from worship in 2003 and was sold. The closing celebration took place on 1-11-2003.

New Dutch Reformed Church in the post-war district of Morgenstond. Hall church, covered by a concrete shell roof, with ancillary rooms and a free-standing, open-worked concrete bell tower at the front. Designed by KL Sijmons Dzn. in a functionalist style, this was, in liturgical terms, a breakthrough in Protestant church construction just after the Second World War. The communion room could be connected to the church hall by means of a sliding wall or not. As such, Sijmons created a design that opened the way to multiple use. Stylistically, the design is somewhat influenced by the work of Le Corbusier due to the sculpturally designed bell tower.
