Church from 1949.

Charming neo-Romanesque church with double tower front. In 1905 the older church from 1840 was demolished and the new one built. This church served as an example for the St. Gertrudiskerk in Maarheeze.

This church replaced the previous church from 1838. Three-aisled basilica cruciform church without tower, in light expressionist forms. Sober work in the later oeuvre of Joseph Cuypers (1861 - 1949). Due to the lack of a real tower, this beautiful church is not noticeable enough. The Church of Our Lady of the Assumption on the Utrechtseweg is on the list to be closed. When the Cuypersgenootschap Foundation discovered that the church was not a municipal monument, it asked the board to grant the church the municipal monument status.

Until the second half of the 19th century, Roosendaal had one Roman Catholic church building: St. Jan. Due to the construction of the railway in 1854, the Redemptorists looked for a place to build their church and monastery. In 1866, an emergency church was built, which was quite large, namely 27 by 14 m., and offered space for 200 folding chairs and 400 kneeling chairs, and contained 2 side attars and 4 confessionals. On 29 October 1866, this emergency church was put into use. After 2 years, they still wanted to build the current church, the blessing was on 19 October 1874. The extension was put into use on 25 March 1909. The major restoration was in 1966, in October 1966 it was as good as new again. The arch above the front door is the coat of arms Beatae Mariae Virgini de Perpetuo Succursoo or the Blessed Virgin Mary of Perpetual Help. The tabernacle in the choir shows the 4 church fathers. On either side of the tabernacle kneel 2 wooden angel figures, originating from the Redemptorist Church (H. Verlosserkerk) in Rotterdam. 8 confessionals are placed in the side aisles.

Reconstruction church with small roof turret in neo-Romanesque forms.

The Reformed Church was founded around 1920 by a number of members and its minister from the Christian Reformed Church. In March 1921, a building was rented for the congregation's meetings. On 20 July 1921, the congregation was instituted. The congregation expired and ceased to exist around 1925. In 1934, a new Reformed Church was founded. Two members, again from the Christian Reformed Church, jointly purchased the 'Evangelization room' on Dwars Nieuwstraat. The building had 280 seats. This congregation was instituted on 24 October 1934. In 1962, the congregation decided to build a new building. The last church service was held in the church building on Sunday 17 November. The new church building was officially put into use on 21 November 1968.
