The church of Ter Idzard is particularly known for its beautifully carved sandstone epitaphs of the Van Idzaerda family. The building itself dates from the sixteenth century.

The mosque is located in the centre of the original village. Not much is known about the history of the current mosque. According to Bağişkan, there was already evidence of a mosque on this site from the 1810s. It is not known when the current mosque was built. However, major renovations were carried out in the 1930s. The earthquake of 1953 also caused damage, but it does not seem to have been as severe as other mosques in the Paphos district.

The cathedral of Teramo was built in the Romano-Gothic style between 1158 and 1176. The church was started in 1158, on the order of Bishop Guido II of Teramo, to house the relics of St. Berardo after the destruction of the ancient cathedral of Teramo, Santa Maria Aprutensis, in 1155. In 1331-1335 Bishop Niccolò degli Arcioni had extensively modified the building. The northern part was enlarged to the detriment of the three apses, which were removed. The new building was offset. In the 18th century, the church was modified to adapt it to the Baroque style. The columns and the six Romanesque bays were replaced by two domes, supported by pillars; the naves were lowered, the interior was decorated in stucco and two portals were opened on the sides of the main portal. In the 1930s, a restoration was carried out to restore the church to its original medieval appearance.

Star Church has been the new name for the Rotondekerk near Terband since June 2015. The church got its old name from the nearby former roundabout, before it became an interchange in 2000.

The exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. Since it was not marked on a cadastral map of 1865, most likely it appeared later. The earliest preserved gravestone relates to the end of the 19th century. The fence was installed by ESJF in September 2016.

The Terezin Synagogue is the only remaining "secret synagogue" in the Czech Republic. This prayer room of modest dimensions was created by Artur Berlinger, a German religious master and artist imprisoned in Terezin from 1942 until his deportation to Auschwitz in the autumn of 1944. Meanwhile, Berlinger created the prayer room in an old storage space and regularly organized religious services there. The room retains the original painted decoration.

Originally built before the year 1000, Termini Imerese Cathedral was rebuilt in 1604 in a larger form. In 1802, the barrel vaults of the central nave and transept were decorated, as well as the walls of the large central chapel.

The cathedral of Termoli was built in 1037 on the remains of what was once a pagan temple dedicated to Castor and Pollux. The present building was constructed between the 12th and 13th centuries. The cathedral underwent some changes after the earthquake of 1464 and the Turkish attack of 1566. During further works in 1760 and 1962, the relics of St Bass and St Timothy, the patron saints of the city, were found.

Local tradition tells us that the first cathedral of Terni, corresponding to the crypt, was built on the remains of a pagan Roman temple by the holy bishop Anastasius of Terni in the 6th century. In the 9th century, renovation work was carried out on the crypt and the cathedral, which was resumed in the 12th century. Little remains of the Romanesque cathedral today, due to the modernisation work carried out in the 16th and 17th centuries according to the tastes of the time.
