Laurentiuskerk
In 1261 there was mention of a chapel, and since 1316 there was mention of an independent parish in the village of Ginneken, which was dedicated to Saint Lawrence. The oldest parts of the current building are however late Gothic and date from the middle of the 15th century. It is a single-nave cruciform church with a west tower. In 1630 there was a fire that destroyed a large part of the church, but the choir and transept were preserved. There was also a fire in 1649. The church was restored in 1928 and in 1940 the nave was rebuilt. The built-in tower dates from the 14th century and was changed in 1649 .
