The St. Nicholas Church is the ruin of an old Lutheran church. It is now a memorial dedicated to "the victims of war and tyranny between 1933 and 1945". The building was built from 1195 to 1874, a long process due mainly to the height of the spire.

St. Martin's Cathedral in Mainz was founded in 975 by Archbishop Willigis, who was also Archchancellor of the Holy Roman Empire. As the most powerful man in the Church after the Pope, Willigis demanded the construction of a church of impressive size, which was consecrated in 1009. On the day of his consecration, however, it was destroyed by fire. The new building was completed in 1036. After another fire in 1081, it was rebuilt under Emperor Henry IV (1084-1105). It was only much later that Gothic and Baroque additions were made. From 1872 to 1877, the cathedral was restored under the direction of P.J.H. Cuypers. The cathedral, together with the cathedral churches of Speyer and Worms, is a highlight of Romanesque architecture along the Rhine. These three churches are collectively called the Kaiserdome.

Maisel's synagogue in Prague is an Ashkenazi synagogue built between 1590 and 1592, rebuilt successively in 1691, 1864 and 1905. This brick building style is now used as a museum.

Makarska Cathedral is the second cathedral church of the Split-Makarska archdiocese. It was built in the Baroque style from 1700 to 1756. The cathedral was considerably damaged in the great earthquake of 1962, and some changes were made during the restoration of the interior of the church.

The exact period of the cemetery’s establishment is unknown. However, given there are preserved tombstones dated to the late 19th century, it can be inferred the cemetery was already in use during that era. The cemetery could not be found on old maps of the region.

The Jewish cemetery in Mala Dobron’ already existed in 1855, as evident from the inscription on the oldest tombstone. It was in use until WWII. There is one post-war burial dating from 1973.

The foundation of the Mala Remeta monastery is traditionally attributed to the Serbian King Dragutin Nemanjić in the 13th century, although the oldest sources mentioning its existence date back to the 16th century. It is one of the 16 surviving Orthodox monasteries built between the 15th and 18th centuries on the Fruška Gora mountain in Serbia (also known as the Serbian Mount Athos).

It is not known when the Jewish cemetery in Vysoká pri Morave was established. The date of the last burial in the cemetery is also unknown. For 70 years, the cemetery was largely abandoned. Undoubtedly, the main reason was that none of the Jews from the village who were deported to concentration camps survived. All the tombstones were lost during the socialist era.
