Roman Catholic St. Bernulphus Church from 1889. Neo-Gothic hall church with staircase tower designed by Alfred Tepe (1840 - 1920). Expansion in 1922 by WAM in Riele. Of great importance are the Stations of the Cross from 1916 by Jan Toorop (1858-1928). Heavily damaged during the Second World War in 1944; the upper part of the tower was not rebuilt after the war.

This reformed church on the Utrechtseweg in Renkum was put into use on 8 August 1928. The first stone had been laid the year before, on 2 December 1927. The building served as a replacement for a church from 1889 on the Molenweg. Design sketches date back to 1925 and were published as intended for a church in nearby Oosterbeek. It is likely that this is the same church. These sketches were much more daring and are much more in line with the expressive Amsterdam School than the final result. Due to war damage, the building is no longer original in all places and some additions have been made to the rear.

Interesting interbellum church with a roof turret. The building is also used by the New Apostolic Church. I has been out of use since November 2023.

This church replaced the previous church from 1838. Three-aisled basilica cruciform church without tower, in light expressionist forms. Sober work in the later oeuvre of Joseph Cuypers (1861 - 1949). Due to the lack of a real tower, this beautiful church is not noticeable enough. The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption on the Utrechtseweg is on the list to be closed. When the Cuypersgenootschap Foundation discovered that the church was not a municipal monument, it asked the board to grant the church the municipal monument status.

Year of construction: 1934-1935. Architect: C. Kruiswijk. This building is set back from the street.
