The Salvator Church is an Evangelical Lutheran church built between 1717 and 1720 in the Baroque style according to the plans of master builder David Schatz, but the tower was only built between 1775 and 1778 according to the plans of Gerardo Hofmann. Two years later, the church was destroyed in the fire of the city of Gera in 1780. In contrast to the second church in Gera at that time, St. John's Church, the Salvator Church was rebuilt between 1781 and 1783 and is therefore since then the only church in the historic old town of Gera.

Built as a Reformed Salvator Church. In use as such until 1994. Attached to the building are a former parsonage and a former sexton's house.

Salzburg Cathedral first existed as an 8th-century Romanesque building, but this building burned down twice in 1127 and 1167. An even larger Romanesque building was later erected, becoming the largest church north of the Alps, but the building also burned down in 1598 and was finally demolished in 1606. The present Baroque building was constructed between 1614 and 1628, during the Thirty Years' War. In October 1944, the cathedral dome collapsed during an air raid on Salzburg. From 1945 to 1959, the cathedral was renovated and the dome rebuilt. The building is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site together with the historic city centre of Salzburg.

Built as a Reformed Church, replacing an earlier church building elsewhere in Meppel. Beautiful neo-church, with a richly detailed facade and two (unequal) towers, designed by Roelof Kuipers (brother of the well-known architect Tjeerd Kuipers). Extensively renovated in 1921 or 1924 (built-in galleries in both transepts) and 1972 (major modernization). Nevertheless, the exterior and (the spatial effect of) the interior have remained largely intact. The Old Church is located on the Groenmarkt in Meppel. The name Old Church has little to do with the age of the building. The Old Church was originally the only church building of the Reformed Church in Meppel. This community later had, in addition to this church, a New Church from 1958 onwards. That church building was sold off by the Reformed Church in 1994, but the name Old Church has remained.
