The Michaelerkirche (St Michael's Church) is one of the oldest churches in Vienna. It was built in the 13th century. It is a rare example of a Romanesque church in Vienna, although with baroque and classical additions.

The Michaelis Church in Leipzig was built in 1901-1904 in the newly developed Nordvorstadt district of Leipzig. The architecture does not correspond to any style, but combines neo-Gothic, neo-Baroque and Art Nouveau elements.

St Michael's Church is a 15th-century church. In 1495 the tower was built on the south side and the nave on the west side. The vault and roof were completed around 1520. During the remodelling of 1892, the galleries were built, the south windows were blocked up and stairs were built outside. At the end of the Second World War, during the Battle of Bautzen, the tower dome was burnt down, but a bell from 1929 was preserved and was the only one in the whole city to ring on New Year's Day 1946. During the renovation work from 1964 to 1976, most of the 1892 alterations were reversed, the extensions were removed and the windows were exposed again.

The church, formerly dedicated to St. Michael, is a Romanesque building from the 13th century. It was restored in 1887 by PJH Cuypers. In 1994 the choir was extended. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

There are no written sources available about the origin and construction history of this church. The church was probably built in the 13th century. In 1371, Mensingeweer was listed as a parish together with Maarslag. It was initially a simple hall church with a straight choir closure where Roman Catholic services were held until the Reformation. The church is built in large-format monastery bricks that are hidden from view by a flat white-painted plaster that was applied in 1842. Only on the first floor of the tower is a fragment of the original brickwork still visible in the form of brick blind niches with decorative brickwork. After a major restoration, the Michaëlskerk was put back into use on Saturday, October 25, 2003. The church has been restored in phases since 1999. The restoration of the exterior was completed in 2000. This church is listed as a National Monument of the Netherlands.

Built as Dutch Reformed Church. Important modern church building with tower.

Extremely interesting modern church, in the characteristic well-maintained, and with substantiated symbolism provided, anthroposophical architecture. This is the second church building in the Netherlands, after the one in The Hague, of the Christian Community. Later similar churches followed in Amsterdam, Zeist, Veldhoven, Alkmaar.

This church was originally dedicated to Saint Michael and was a daughter church of the church in Doorn. Both churches fell under the archdeacon of Utrecht. The chapel must have been built between 1250 and 1300 as a single-aisled building. It was first mentioned in 1312. The church tower must have been built against the west facade of the church around 1500. The nave of the church must have been built at the beginning of the 14th century, between 1300 and 1325. The choir and nave both show a late Romanesque construction.
