Reformed church in Maarsbergen, built in 1883-1884 by order of Geertruida Adriana du Bois, widow of CJ Blok. The church is said to have been built in response to the wishes of her brother, Aalt du Bois. The Du Bois family lived in Maarsbergen Castle and had the church built on their own land. The hall church, built in eclectic style, was designed by architects FW van Gendt and AR Freem. The Renaissance features that can also be seen in the Amsterdam Zuider- and Westerkerk can be seen, particularly in the tower and the buttresses. In 1934, the tower was built on the initiative of the Commission for the commemoration of the 50th anniversary, based on plans by architect J. Pothoven. This tower with an open imperial crown replaced a small facade crowning. This original crowning is indicated on the design drawings of the Maarsbergen church. The front and rear facades originally had a simple articulated crowning. On the front facade a bell was placed under a canopy, on the back facade a spherical crowning. The interior has been preserved intact. The organ is protected by the state. A meeting room was built against the back facade of the church, which is not protected. The north facade of this building dates from the 19th century. Originally the building served as a school building.

Dutch Reformed Church. Simple Gothic church from 1794 with a bell spire above the west facade from 1869. Internal oak pulpit (recently painted pastel) with sounding board. Bell tower with bell by N. Rogier, 1629, diam. 110.5 cm. Mechanical wrought iron tower clock, ca. 1870. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

The Reformed Church in Hedel was built around 1640 in a semi-Gothic transitional style on the foundations of the transept and choir of a larger cruciform church.

The church was restored between early 2000 and spring 2007. The restoration plan was drawn up by the architectural firm Jelle de Jong in Lemmer. That does not mean that there were no churchgoers in the church for seven years. First, the tower was restored. Then the exterior and interior of the church followed. And church services continued as much as possible. 18 gravestones were removed from under the floor. Two of these were very old. The squat (gallery) has disappeared. It was needed at the time when a liberal minister came to Wommels and many churchgoers from Wommels came to Kubaard. After an open house on 21 April 2007, the restored church was officially put back into use. (53-05/58-07)
