The church in Moardăş was built in the 15th century as a Gothic hall church. the sculptures in the chancel are most valuable. The vault ribbing rests on richly and very fine decorated consoles. Moreover, the beautiful traceries of the three Gothic windows add more value to the chancel. They have been repaired in stages since the year 2010. These works are part of a project for preserving the fortified church, which started in 2008 on the initiative of the Fortified Churches Foundation (former Coordination Office) involving various partners.

The Cathedral of Modena is one of the most important Romanesque sites in Europe and is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. Work on the cathedral began in 1099, under the direction of the architect Lanfranco, on the site of the tomb of San Geminiano, the patron saint of Modena. Previously, from the 5th century onwards, two churches had been built on the same site, but both had been destroyed. The remains of the saint are still on display in the crypt of the cathedral. The façade presents different styles. The majestic rose windows were added by Anselm in the 13th century, while the two lions supporting the columns of the entrance belong to the period of ancient Rome and were probably discovered during the excavations for the foundations. The construction of the bell tower was completed in 1319.

Built between 1869 and 1873, the synagogue of Modena was endowed with a classicist style by Ludovico Maglietta, who designed the façade and included a colonnade of Corinthian columns in the building, in the women's galleries. The synagogue was miraculously left intact during the Fascist period and the Second World War.

The Co-cathedral of Modigliana has very ancient origins. It was first documented in 892 as a parish church. Due to the extensive renovations it underwent during the 15th century, the crypt is the only remaining part of this ancient church. The new church was consecrated by Pope Julius II (1503-1513) himself during his pastoral visit to the province of Romagna in 1506. Further work was carried out in the 18th century with the addition of the bell tower. When the diocese of Modigliana was created (mid-19th century), the parish church of Santo Stefano became a cathedral church.
