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

A church on this site was first mentioned around 1200. The administrators of the diocese of Utrecht, the cathedral chapter, drew up a list of parishes that had to hand over their tithes to them. Herveld belongs to those church communities that had to hand over 10% tax to the national church. On 13 May 1348, Knight Jan van Homoet acknowledged having received the tithes and other income in the parishes of Andelst and Herveld from the cathedral chapter on lease for two years. The church also appears on a list of churches of the Domfabriek from the year 1395.

The Wilten Abbey is a religious complex founded in the 12th century.  It is home to the Wilten Boys’ Choir, the oldest choral school in Europe. The abbey church is elegantly decorated in the Rococo style, with the contribution of many Bavarian artists such as painter Mathias Günther and stucco plasterers Feichtmayr from Wessobrunn.

Fifteen centuries of English history lie behind the massive Cathedral you see today. It stands at the heart of historic Winchester, once the seat of Anglo-Saxon and Norman royal power, on the site of an early Christian church. It’s been a place of worship ever since.

The chapel was built between the years 1387 and 1395 to designs by William Wynford, with Hugh Herland responsible for the traceried wooden ceiling and Thomas of Oxford for the glazing. The chapel was consecrated for use on 17 July 1395. Its prime importance in Wykeham's scheme for the College is shown by its size.

The cemetery was established in the first half of the 19th century. In 1841, the synagogue supervision leased a plot of land intended for a cemetery. Until the 1870’s, the cemetery also served as the burial place for Jews from the nearby Żyrardów.

The Withington Spanish and Portuguese Synagogue in Manchester is a Sephardi synagogue built in 1925-27 by architect Delissa Joseph. This brick building in Neo-Classical style still serves as a synagogue.

Built by order of the College of Churchwardens of the Reformed Church, in a sober architectural style inspired by Gothic forms. According to the memorial stone next to the entrance, the first stone was laid on 9 September 1846.
