Catholic Church St. Martin
The oldest components of the church are the late Romanesque flank towers of the choir, built around 1190, which belonged to a former basilica. The Gothic choir with two ribbed vaults was created in 1332, and the baroque nave in hall style was built between 1775 and 1777. The aisles with lateral choirs were added in 1895-99. Despite the many architectural styles, the church space appears as a harmonious whole and houses, among other things, a valuable silent organ from the year 1742. The two bell towers contain a representative carillon with a total weight of 13.6 tons.
