The Reform Synagogue in Bradford is an Ashkenazi synagogue built in 1880-81 by architects T.H. and F. Healey. The synagogue was rebuilt in 1956 and 2013. This stone building in the Neo-Moorish and Victorian style still serves as a synagogue.

The Church of the Reformation, which dates back to 1721-1733, is one of the few Calvinist churches in Latvia. The church is richly decorated with pilasters and surmounted by a small tower. After a fire, it was rebuilt in 1805 and the ground floor was converted into a warehouse. During the Soviet occupation, the building was converted into a recording studio.

The Reformation also drove out the priests in Sebaldeburen. It is not known how the service was performed at that time. In the year 1602 Nicolaus Petri took charge of the service here. At that time there was a combination with Grijpskerk. This probably lasted until 1606. Then there is mention of a joint minister for Grootegast and Sebaldeburen: Thomas Joannis. The stamp above the entrance was left by Rev. Nicolaus Westendorp on the reformed congregation when the new church was put into use in 1807. Because it was this Rev. Westendorp who, when he became minister of Sebaldeburen in 1797, was very annoyed by the dilapidated church he found there. He says it like this: "When I came to the Community (in 1797) I had considered the pitiful condition of the Church with the saddest emotions. This feeling became tormenting, as often as I imagined the approaching moment when the care for our lives would force us to avoid it. There was no repairing it: it was not possible to establish a new one from the church goods and income, because they were not even sufficient to maintain the Parsonage and Sacristan. There was also no expectation of the Community; because it was small, burdened by other institutions and consisted mainly of peat and laborers."

Built in 1861 to replace the old village church. Three copper chandeliers, Louis XVI. Tombstone, 17th century. Single manual organ of Westphalian origin. Made around 1700. Placed in the Herv. Church in Loenen in 1870. On that occasion, the lower case was removed and the keyboard moved to the side. During the restoration in 1978, the case was reconstructed in its original form (with lower case and backside playing). The maker of the organ is unknown.

This church stands on a mound. The current church originally dates from the beginning of the 15th century, but a lot was demolished and added. For example, the tower was added in 1630, and the choir was demolished in 1768.

Extension at the rear and modification of the roof turret.

Dutch Reformed CHURCH built in 1853 in neoclassical style. Foundation stone in the front facade: 'Founded 1853. Churchwardens Roelof Hagting, Remmelt Haange, Lens Beyring'. The church was restored in 1975 by order of the church council by the Bureau Monumentenzorg of the province of Drenthe. Among other things, the (half-) columns in the Doric order and a new chandelier were installed. Worth mentioning is the cemetery behind the church; however, this is of local importance.
