The parish church of St. Margaretha was built in the 1850s in neo-Gothic style and later renovated several times. The 47-metre-high church tower, visible from afar, is the town's landmark. The oldest work of art in the church is a baptismal font dating back to the 16th century. The interior includes a monstrance from the 18th century. The Stations of the Cross (1921) were restored in 1996. The altars date from the time the church was built. The church has a historic organ, built by master organ builder Randebrock in 1855/1856. The choir stained glass windows were created by Düsseldorf stained glass artist Hertel in 1912.
