Modern church with tower. Consecrated 26 February 1972. Replaced an earlier Roman Catholic church building. The building is partly used as the De Vier Trappen Health Centre.

Large church with a tower placed on the side. The church was built when the old Gothic church on the nearby church hill became too small due to the expansion of Eygelshoven, as a result of the Laura and Julia mines. In 1920, construction began on the new church, designed by A. Boosten in Maastricht and J. Ritzen in Heerlen.

The Kudelstaart station was founded in 1661. Churches were held in a wooden shed on the Robend. In 1822, a three-aisled neoclassical church was built, which was restored in 1837 after a flood. In 1868-1870, the west side was provided with a nice neo-Romanesque facade with built-in tower by Th. Asseler (consecrated 22-4-1870). In 1959, modern paintings and Stations of the Cross were already installed. The original furniture was removed in 1968-1969 and the interior was drastically modernized at that time.

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

Fairly sober late neo-Gothic church with tower, which is a defining feature of Katwijk aan den Rijn. Replaced an earlier early neo-Gothic church.

The church in Baexem was mentioned in 1485 at least as independent of the mother church in Thorn. The oldest remains of church buildings were found during the archaeological research after the Second World War by P. Glazema. In his reconstruction, the oldest remains of a stone church were not dated, the tower was dated from around 1200. This tower remained standing until 1944. The old church was a small hall church, against which a polygonal chancel was built at some point later. The church was also enlarged at some point with a second nave. A memorial stone with the date 1576, which was built into the tower above the entrance, could indicate the renovation of the church, or the cladding of the tuff tower with marl. In 1850, the old church, with the exception of the tower, was demolished and replaced by a three-aisled neoclassical church. The church of 1850 became too small for the growing population. Therefore, in 1928, under the direction of architect Caspar Franssen, the side aisles were extended along the chancel. New sacristies and a new baptismal chapel were added next to the tower. On 15 November 1944, the tower was blown up by the retreating Germans. Almost the entire inventory was destroyed by the explosion. The bell from 1829 had already been stolen by the occupiers on 11 January 1943, the bell from 1450, cast by Jan van Asten, which was still hanging in the tower, fell to the ground during the explosion, virtually undamaged.

Replaced barn church from 1752. Single-nave neo-Gothic church with tower, built in 1854-1856. Internal plastered vaults. Altar, pulpit and other furnishings from the construction period, probably from Louis Veneman. Organ by Gebr. Adema from 1856. Neo-Gothic front designed by Dirk Ypma.
