The present Nola Cathedral was built between 1869 and the beginning of the 20th century according to a project by the architect Nicola Breglia in neo-Renaissance style: it was inaugurated in May 1909 with the placing of the relics of Saint Paulinus. The new construction was necessary due to the devastating arson attack that completely destroyed the old Gothic church on the night of 13th February 1861.

Nonantola Abbey is an important Benedictine abbey founded in 752 by Abbot Anselm of Friuli. In 899 the abbey was plundered by the Magyars and then by the earthquake of 1117. It continued to play an important role; it was the seat of the meeting between Pope Marin I and Emperor Charles the Great and the burial place of Pope Adrian III.

Nonnberg Abbey is an abbey of Benedictine sisters in Salzburg. Founded in the 8th century, it is today one of the Christian convents with the longest continuous activity. Dating mostly from the 16th century, the current monastic complex, with its surrounding walls and archaeological sites, is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the city of Salzburg.

The monastery of Nonneseter may have been built around 1150 and is dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Today, only the base of the church and the chapel of the south choir, built in the second half of the 13th century, remain of the establishment.

Hall church without tower. Replaced an earlier wooden church.

Large church with tower in neo-Romanesque forms. Built as a Reformed Church, in use 1878, architect A. Jurling. This church was assigned to the Reformed Church (Liberated) in 1945. Early 2007 this church was restored and the interior was given a more modern and light appearance. On the liturgical center there is a new pulpit, a new baptismal font and a table with communion set. The pews have been renewed and now stand on a natural stone floor. (58-07)

The previous wooden church became too small and was replaced in 1904 by this larger stone church designed by J. Hengeveld. A hall church with a stepped gable, gable turret and neo-renaissance diamond caps. The church served as a Reformed church until 1965 and was then sold and transferred to the Old Reformed Church in Alphen aan den Rijn. The Old Reformed Church had originated as a Free Old Reformed Church and joined the Federation of Old Reformed Churches in the Netherlands in 1946. The church met many times in a 'hall' in the centre of old Alphen. In the 1960s, the church was forced by the government to move due to the construction of a shopping centre. As a result, the former Reformed church was purchased. In the year of purchase, the new Reformed Good Shepherd Church was put into use. The church community needed a larger church building, because membership increased sharply as large new housing estates were built north of the Rhine.

Neo-Romanesque church with unequal double tower front, built in 1906 to a design by JC Wentinck. As an example of Protestant church architecture in Neo-Romanesque style, with stylistic references to late Romanesque architecture in the Rhineland (superstructure tower), the church is remarkable and quite rare. The church hall, in the shape of a Greek cross, covered by wooden barrel vaults, stands perpendicular to the street; the front facade from the street is the side facade of the church hall. In this facade, above the main entrance, a large rose window. Above the entrance portal a wimberg (ornamental facade), flanked by natural stone pilasters with cube capitals. The two towers, a low one crowned with a tent roof and on the right a high, heavy bell tower, crowned by a spire with four diamond shields. The sound holes are divided by squat columns. Bells have never been installed. At house number 9 is the 'service entrance' to the annex rooms with the sexton's house above it.

This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.
