Until 1796 a reformed (also called: reformed) church, then Roman Catholic, demolished in 1885. In 1884 the foundation stone was laid for the current Roman Catholic St. Joriskerk. Hendrik van Tulder from Tilburg drew the design. The church was put into use in 1885. A tower with side chapels was added in 1910 to a design by Jac. van Gils. Restoration started in 2003.

Exceptionally important neoclassical church. Main work of architect HH ​​Dansdorp. Roman Catholic Church of St. Joseph, consecrated 1843.

The original church from 1934 was a creation of the architect A. Rats. This church was destroyed by war on 20 November 1944. The entire western part was destroyed, and the vaults collapsed. The destruction was so extensive that only the foundations were still visible. The tower clock was destroyed, as well as the harmonium, the pews and the Stations of the Cross. The bells had already been stolen by the occupier in 1942. Immediately after the liberation, the masses were read in the cellars of various parishioners. Shortly afterwards, the Custers hall was put into use for this purpose, but it was also too small. From 11 March 1945, the Lemmen hall was therefore set up as an emergency church. This burned down in 1946, so that the Custers hall had to provide a solution again. In the meantime, the Lemmen hall was renovated and purchased, so that it could be used as a permanent emergency church. This temporary church was put into use in 1958 as a nursery school, which in turn left the building in 1969.
