Three-aisled cruciform basilica with multi-faceted closed pseudotransept (transept) in late neo-Gothic style. Typical in the oeuvre of H. Kroes, in which an attempt was made to connect the neo-Gothic style with the renewed Roman Catholic liturgical wishes and spatial concepts of the early twentieth century. The main naves are covered by net vaults. Front tower with balustrade, corner turrets and spire. The inventory and glazing date largely from the construction period and shortly thereafter. This church is listed as a Municipal Monument of the Netherlands.

Characteristic small neo-Romanesque hall church with tower next to the choir, designed by Jos. Margry (1888-1982). Church, parish and the development village were founded at the beginning of the twentieth century. The church was restored in 2005. Until the arrival of a church, residents of Loosbroek were dependent on the church in Heeswijk. In 1898, chaplain De Groot was commissioned by Bishop Wilhelmus van de Ven to establish a parish and a church. After acquiring land from residents of Heeswijk Castle, a temporary church was built in the village that same year, which had to be rebuilt again in 1902 due to its poor condition. In the same year, construction began on a full-fledged church designed by architect Jos Margry. To finance the construction, the parish received a donation from the Antoniusfonds, whereby the church had to be dedicated to Antonius van Padua. The church was consecrated in 1912. The church is built as a hall church and has neo-Romanesque elements. The church tower, with an octagonal spire between four gables, stands next to the nave of the church. In the side gable are placed round windows with bifora underneath. Behind the church is the parsonage. In the church is a relic of Saint Donatus and an attempt was made to make the church a small place of pilgrimage. Donatus also appears in statues and candles in the church.

Neo-Gothic church with roofer. Built as the second R.K. Church in Dordrecht, after the neoclassical St. Boniface church in the inner city. After dereception, in 1974, of the St. Boniface church received the church in question, and parish, called "H.H. Antony and Boniface." Almost like central construction (for various austerity of the original, larger design) founded neo-Gothic church. A designed tower is never built; at the intersection a small celebration tower. Over the 1920s and 1930s, the interior has been gradually further decorated with many interesting details. Damaged in war acts on 12 May 1940. After that, this church was restored with a lower roof than the original, but again with a roof window; the interesting space of the interior, with brick vaults, has remained intact. Architecturally, this church is, especially in terms of interior layout, somewhat similar to the (although much larger and higher, more monumental) former R.K. The Church of H.H. Engelbe OC op de la dors on the Brandtstraat in The Hague, also demolished in 1981, also by architect Nicolaas Molenaar (1850-1930).

The neo-Romanesque St. Antonius Church, as we know it today, was built in 1873-1875 as a replacement for the former barn church. The church was consecrated on 12 September 1875. At the end of the Second World War, the 63 m tower was blown up by the Germans, a large part of the church was destroyed. The church was then rebuilt in 1948 in neo-Romanesque style, without a tower. In the church there is a model of the church in all its glory, with the tower as it was the landmark of Lepelstraat until October 1944.

Replaces the church from 1935 that was destroyed during the war. Like the pre-war church, the current church is built in traditionalist forms, influenced by Romanesque and early Christian architecture. Tower from 1954.

Restored in 1991 by the Elbertse company in Soest.

This Roman Catholic Church is dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua. The church building is a tall building with a short tower and a three-sided choir closure. The building was put into use in 1866. In the chancel there are two stained glass windows: one depicts Saint Anthony, the other Andreas Woutersz. van Heinenoord, one of the 19 Martyrs of Gorcum. In 2016, attention was paid to the 150th anniversary of this church. In the context of this anniversary, the stained glass windows were restored.
