Detached single-nave church in neo-Romanesque style from 1885-1886 designed by the architect K. Stoffels for the Mennonite community. The church building is part of the rich late 19th century buildings on the curved Paleisstraat, which were constructed after the community of King William III had taken over the royal possessions behind the palace on the Kneuterdijk.
Roman Catholic Church of St. James the Greater built in 1875-1878 to a design by Pierre Cuypers (1827 - 1921) in neo-Gothic style; wrought iron gate with ornamental lanterns on Parkstraat.
Monastery church, originally a church of the Dominican monastery - main nave and choir from around 1400, southern aisle added early 16th century. Mechanical tower clock, made by Huyck Hopcoper in 1620. Facade clock, Eijsbouts.

Pulpit from 1729 by JB Xavery, the crowning somewhat later. Organ (National Monument) by Rudolph Garrels from 1726.
