Non-oriented colossal neo-Gothic hall church with high tower in Noordwijk-Binnen. Built in two phases. The first phase was designed by architect N. Molenaar, the second by his son. In 1892 this church was granted the status of pilgrimage church. Behind the water board church from 1834, the transept and choir of the neo-Gothic church were built in 1894. When further expansion was necessary, the old water board church was demolished. In 1925-1926 the church was completed with the construction of the nave, front facade, tower and parsonage, designed by Nicolaas Molenaar Jr. (1892-1973). At the top of the facade is a statue of the patron saint of the church, Saint Jeroen. The falcon on his arm is said to indicate his noble origins. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

Large, important neo-Gothic church with tower. In 1894, De Moer became an independent parish. Before that, the area belonged to the parish of Loon op Zand. When the parish was founded, a temporary wooden church was placed that had been taken over from Dussen. In 1902, this was replaced by the current church, designed by CF van Hoof from Tilburg. The consecration by pastor AHF Kamp took place on 2 February 1902, after which it was consecrated on 6 June 1903 by W. van der Ven, bishop of 's-Hertogenbosch. The pastor had a brother, Joachim, who had been a chaplain and had died at a young age. Out of love for him, and in his memory, the pastor chose St. Joachim as the patron saint of his newly founded parish. At the initiative of pastor Kamp, a veneration of St. Anna (feast day 16 July) was created. After his death in 1939, this quickly declined. In the fifties of the previous century the last pilgrims came to visit the place. Behind the church is the cemetery where pastor Kamp, who died on September 22, 1939, is also buried.
