The Požega Cathedral was built between 1756 and 1763 and is named after the patron saint of Empress Maria Theresa, St. Teresa of Avila. The top of the first bell tower was destroyed during a storm in 1926 and was therefore replaced by a new one, which is 63 metres high. The interior is in Baroque and Rococo style.
The Kutjevo Abbey is a former Cistercian Abbey built in the region of Slavonia, at the heart of the so-called Golden Valley. Today the complex is a well-known winery in northeast Croatia.

Among the more notable buildings in the cemetery include the Schmidek Schulzer family ohel, built as a mausoleum, and the ruins of a mortuary. The last burial took place in 1942.
