The church of St. Symphorien was first mentioned by the Frankish king Charles the Bald (843-877) in 852. In the 11th century, the population increased, which made it necessary to build a larger church. Three parts were therefore built, which still exist today: the apse, the bay and the stone bell tower. The church underwent a major reconstruction in the Renaissance style in the 16th century. Until the 18th century, the church of St. Symphorien was always under the control of the abbey of Marmoutier.

The church of St. Thomas the Apostle is the Baroque reconstruction in the 17th century, of a Gothic Augustinian monastery from the 14th century.

Built in the 12th century, it is built on the site of an original 5th century basilica, called "Saint-Étienne"; a Gothic choir was added in the 15th century. Throughout its history, it has been the setting for several events, such as councils during the 5th century or the coronation of the Germanic Roman Emperor Frederick I Barbarossa by the Archbishop of Arles, Raimon de Bollène. Thanks to Prosper Mérimée, then second Inspector General of Historical Monuments, it was classified as a historic monument by the 18405 list. It is also listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the Roman and Romanesque monuments of Arles since 1981.

The Church of St. Victor is commonly called Xanten Cathedral because of its importance and size, although it was never an Episcopal church. It owes its name to the martyr and member of the Theban legion, Viktor of Xanten, who was allegedly executed in the 4th century. The foundation stone for the present building was laid in 1263 by Friedrich and Konrad von Hochstaden. The construction took 281 years and was finally completed with the consecration of the Chapel of the Holy Spirit in 1544.

The church of St. Vitus was built in the 14th century in the Gothic style. As the old church built in 1309 had become too small for the growing population of the Rosenberg residence, a larger church was built. Thus, the present building was largely constructed between 1407 and 1438. It was given a Baroque appearance in 1725-1726.
