Synagoge

The synagogue was built next to an older synagogue which dated back to 1791. The new synagogue was consecrated in 1868. The design of the building was executed in an early Neo-Gothic style in which the the Gothic features were purely ornamental and not structure-related. The Neo-Gothic elements include the plastered octagonal pilasters topped by pinnacles, the rounded frieze and the ornamental door and window frames. The pointed arched windows contain iron-cast tracery. A Hebrew inscription is located above the main entrance and refers to Isaiah 56:7 and the date. The structural expansion at the back side of the building was used as the location for the Torah ark and is still recognizable as such from the outside. The women's gallery is still present in the assembly hall. The Jewish community of Culemborg meerged with Utrecht in the year 1947. Three years later, the building was redeveloped as a Christian Reformed church. In 1981/82, the building was renovated by the architect H. K. J. van der Wielen.

Old Catholic Church. Simple, brick hall church, built in 1836. Door frame with Empire consoles. The inventory includes: a richly carved oak pulpit and communion bench, first half of the 18th century. Two-manual organ with free pedal, made in 1900 by JF Witte.

The Roman Catholic Church of St. Barbara, protected because of a bell, dedicated to St. Elisabeth, cast by Jan Tolhuis in 1555 and originating from the former St. Janskerk and the organ with two manuals and pedal made in 1861 by CGF Witte from Utrecht, moved to the current church building in 1886. The organ was restored in 1971 by the Verschueren company from Heythuysen. During that restoration, the organ was expanded with a free pedal that is of no value from the point of view of monument conservation. During a subsequent restoration in 1992 by the Steendam company from Roodeschool, the pedal from 1971 was removed again.
