In the narthex, the frescoes date from the beginning of the 19th century.

Meissen Cathedral is, together with Albrechtsburg Castle, the highest point in the city. The present building was erected from 1250 on the site of a former cathedral dating from the end of the 10th century. Today's cathedral is built according to a Gothic church plan. The choir and cloister were finished in 1268. The stained glass windows of the choir were installed around 1270. The chapel of Sainte-Marie-Madeleine was completed to the east in 1280, the octagonal chapel of Saint-Jean-Baptiste in 1291 and the majestic chapter house in 1297. It was not until 1410 that the nave was completed. The cathedral passed to the Protestant Reformation in 1581.

The Dede Sipahi Mosque is centrally located in the old settlement area. The mosque as well as the school right next door seem to have been built around 1910 at about the same time. The mosque was thus a successor to a mosque that had already been built on the same site in Ottoman times.

The church of Agios Polychronios was built in 1868 and is located on the eastern edge of the original settlement area. After 1974, the church was converted into a mosque (" Adaçay Köyü Camii") and used until a new mosque was built in the village in the 2000s. After that, the building was abandoned and left to its own devices.
