Rhenen is a city and municipality in the Dutch province of Utrecht.
In the 17th century the exiled King Frederick V of the Palatinate had a summer residence in Rhenen. He had the palace built in 1630-1631 to a design by the Hague architect Bartholomeus van Bassen. The King's Palace, as it was called, was demolished in 1812. Today the only reminders of the monarch's residence in Rhenen are a commemorative plaque and the street name Frederik van de Paltshof.
The Cunera Church is the main church in Rhenen. It is a relatively large church, thanks to the fact that Rhenen was an important place of pilgrimage in the Middle Ages. Pilgrims came to see the relics of Saint Cunera, which were venerated here from the eighth century onwards. The pride of the church is its 81.8 metre high tower.
