The Boskapel is located in the Nijmegen West district, and is situated on the north side of the Graafseweg in the middle of a wooded area. The chapel was built in 1961-1963 by order of the Augustinian Fathers. CGKV has been the owner since 2010.

The small church is prominently located on the corner of the Garderenseweg, the Staverdenseweg and the Jhr. Dr. CJ Sandbergweg. It was founded in 1875, as a replacement for a wooden church building from 1866, by Jan Rudolf Kemper for the residents of Staverden, Leuvenum and Speuld. In 1931 the church was renovated and the consistory room was added, designed by the architectural firm BRINKMAN and Van der VLUGT, who probably also took care of the new interior of the church building (pew plan, pulpit, tiled floor, wainscoting and lamps).

Church building with 280 seats. The congregation of Oudemirdum was founded because members of the local Dutch Reformed Church no longer felt at home there. After attending church in the Reformed Congregation of Lemmer for some time, the church building with 200 seats was put into use on 15 August 1933. After using a pedal organ for the first few years, the congregation started using an organ by Mr Wattel in Utrecht in 1951. In 1975, a community centre was built next to the church. In 1969, the number of seats was expanded. In 1986, the organ was replaced by an organ by the firm Fama & Raadgever in Utrecht.

The Synagogue in Boskovice was constructed in the first half of the 17th century by the Italian builder Silvestr Fiota. It is one of the oldest and best preserved Jewish historical monuments in the Czech Republic. Its arches, vaults, and fluted columns are covered with frescoes of Hebrew text spelling out prayers or names of congregants.

This church was built in the early 12th century on the site of a predecessor that may date back to the 5th century, but there are no written documents about this. The foundations of the church date from the 8th century. It was a collegiate church with eleven canons attached. When the church became too small, a new church was built in 1268 on a neighbouring site, which was replaced by the current St. Peter's Church after a fire. When a village fire broke out in 1623, which reduced many houses near this church to ashes, the current Market Square was formed and a building ban was in effect there. The Vrijthof lost its function as a result and in 1625 it was started to be built on. When the Catholic churches were annexed in 1648, the Reformed Church moved into the large St. Peter's Church and the small St. Mary's Church became vacant. From 1664 to 1799 it was used as a butter scale, hence the name Boterkerkje. From 1799, when the St. Peter's Church was returned to the Catholics, the Boterkerkje has been a Dutch Reformed Church. In 1980 Samen op Wegkerk, and in 2004 Protestant Church. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

The church of Botne is a medieval stone church with a rectangular nave and lower, narrower choirs. In 1865, a tower was built to the west and an extension of the sacristy with a gable roof at the eastern end of the choir as well. In the 1940s, the frescoes on the north wall were updated. The frescoes probably date from two periods, the Middle Ages and the 17th century.

Built in the 17th century to replace a medieval church in the same place, the new church still contains a baptismal font dating from the Middle Ages. The altarpiece was created in northern Germany in the early 17th century and the wood-carved pulpit with canopy dates from 1670.

Founded in 1987, the Boulaye temple, also named the Thousand Buddha Temple, the three story building was built in the Bhutanese style, with Buddha statues of different sizes, numerous paintings and murals.

The co-cathedral of Notre-Dame, or simply Bourg-en-Bresse cathedral, was formerly the collegiate church of Notre-Dame-du-Bourg, which was elevated to the rank of co-cathedral in 1992. The existence of a chapel served by priests is duly attested to in 1258 by the bequest of its fabric. Similarly, the Count of Savoy Amon, who claimed to have been healed by the intercession of the Virgin, gave funds to improve the sanctuary in 1343.
