Arnhem's skyline is dominated by the tower of the St. Eusebius, a former catholic church that since the Reformation had been in protestant hands but has been used mostly for cultural purposes in recent decades. This tower is one of the highest in the country. Until 1944, when it was heavily damaged, it had a very different look. After the war it was restored to its current shape; much higher, with a tall upper segment designed in what could be called a new interpretation of the Gothic style.

 The major Catholic church is the St. Walburgis, a Gothic church with two towers at the front, which is quite rare in this country. The church was finished in ca. 1350 and was used by a chapter that had previously resided in Tiel. After the Reformation it served as a prison and in 1808 it returned in catholic hands, now as a parish church, a purpose which demanded the addition of a choir.

During the Reformation the new protestant authorities gave this former chapel of a convent to protestant refugees from Wallonia and France to use as a church. The rest of the monastery has long gone, but the Walloon church is still there. During the war its facade was heavily damaged and rebuilt later in a Traditionalist style, inspired by Gothicism.
