The Cathedral of Conegliano was consecrated in 1491. Dating in its essential parts from 1497, the bell tower is a square tower, with brick faces and built with a double wall. The cathedral contains many works of art such as frescoes and paintings. One of these paintings, the most famous, is preserved as the altarpiece of the cathedral, it is the "Madonna in trono col Bambino fra angeli e santi" by Cima da Conegliano (1459-1517).

The Cathedral of Monterotondo, officially the Basilica of Santa Maria Maddalena, was built in the 17th century in the Baroque style. The interior, which resembles a basilica, has a single nave in the shape of a Latin cross and side chapels connected by arched passages.

The Duomo of Monza dates back to the 6th century. According to legend, the church was commissioned by the Lombard queen of Italy, Theodelinde of Bavaria (589 - 616). She had vowed to build a church dedicated to St. John and, while she was along the river Lambro, she was interrupted by a dove that told her Modo (Latin for "here"). In 595, she had an oraculum (queen's chapel) built on a Greek cross plan, of which only the walls remain today. The queen was buried here in what is now the central aisle. A new church was built on the remains of the oraculum in the 13th century.

The cathedral of Rovigo was built from 1696 to 1791 on top of an old church from the 11th century. In 1711, the demolition of the old cathedral was completed and in 1729, only the dome and the façade were missing. The dome was not completed until 1791 by Giacomo Quaglia da Tresto. The facade was to be built much further forward than the previous one, so that the new building would be located close to the baptistery, which made the traffic between the Porta Arquà and the square uncomfortable. The demolition of the baptistery, already planned, was completed in 1737. However, a solution for the façade was never found. In fact, the only interventions on the façade were limited to the portal, built in 1833.

The Cathedral of Modica is often considered one of the most emblematic monuments of Sicilian Baroque, of which it represents the most scenic and monumental architecture. The building as it stands today is the result of its reconstruction between the 17th and 18th centuries, following the disastrous earthquakes that struck Modica in 1542, 1613 and 1693; minor damage was also caused by earthquakes in the iblea area during the 18th century and in 1848. The cathedral is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Historic village church with tower. The church is a three-aisled pseudo-basilica church with a five-sided closed choir, south transept and a tower with five sections with balustrade and constricted spire. The late Romanesque tower was built at the end of the 13th century. The upper section was changed in the 17th century and the two lower sections were provided with sloping buttresses on the west side in 1837. A bell cast by Henricus Meurs (1608) hangs in the tower. The late Gothic nave and choir were built around 1500. A consistory from 1858 stands against the north side of the choir. During the restoration in 1954-'55 of the church that had completely burned down in 1953, the south transept was added and the top of the tower was reconstructed and raised.

Architecturally interesting church building with various turrets, on an inconspicuous street. First large Reformed church in Rotterdam-Delfshaven. Out of use as a Reformed church in 1987. In use as a Turkish mosque Merkez since 1989. A mezzanine has been built into this mosque (to be determined when). On the ground floor various shops, etc. On the first floor is the (beautiful), hospitable mosque space itself.

Dverberg Church was built in 1843 by the architect Chr.H.Grosch. Originally it was planned to build the church without a tower, but it was given a tower, partly because the tower served as a navigational landmark on the coast. It was also proposed to place the pulpit above the altar, as was customary in octagonal churches, as the parish priest opposed this solution. In front of the church there is a memorial stone "in memory of the fishermen lost in Dverberg".

The period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. It first appears on a cadastral map in 1865.
