In 1630, a clandestine church was dedicated to John the Baptist behind three houses on the Hoge Gouwe. That church still exists, but after a major renovation in 1863 it was given its current facade. The church is rich in interior pieces and liturgical objects, some of which even date from before the Reformation. Lack of contact with the church in Rome led to new ideas emerging among Dutch Catholics. It led to the heated debate between the 'Jansenists' and the established church in 1723 to the split from the Old Catholic Church. Pastor I. Walvis (1653 - 1714) of this church is still known in Gouda as the writer of the first city history in 1713.

Exceptionally important church in neo-Romanesque and neo-Gothic styles, with tower. Built to replace an earlier church , the medieval tower of which still remains elsewhere in the village. Crucifix church on a strongly centralised plan, with an apse on the choir side. Tower to the left of the front facade, covered by a tent roof. The design is in line with the wishes of the Liturgical Movement (so-called people's church) of the early twentieth century: enlarged crossing in the form of an irregular octagon. Largely wooden vaulting of the interior; the vault over the crossing contains a fanlight. The late nineteenth-century inventory (including the main altar) probably comes from the previous church.

Sacrament in 's-Hertogenbosch and the St. Joseph in Eindhoven-Tongelre; the St. Bernadette in Rosmalen-Maliskamp is out of use.
