Onze-Lieve Vrouw van Lourdeskerk is one of Vlokhoven's most prominent landmarks. Vlokhoven was separated from the parish of Heilige Petrus, Woensel in 1919. On this road, Wolter te Riile designed the Onze Lieve Vrouw Van Lourdeskerk. The church was dedicated in 1920, and then expanded by architect Hendrik Wilem Valk. It was re-consecrated again in 1933. In 1938, the bells were increased to two. One of them was stolen during World War II by the occupying force. In 1950, another bell was added. The church is a brick building with an attractive gable-roof and a round staircase tower flanking it. The facade features decorative brickwork, a statue depicting Mary and round stair tower.

The Molen, a windmill that was built in 1899 for use as a grain mill and an oil mill, is another historical feature. It was owned by Cooperatieve Handelsverenig in the 1930s.
