The Liebfrauen Church was built between 1892 and 1894 according to the plans of the architect August Hardegger (1858-1927), who designed the church in the style of an early Christian basilica based on models of Roman and Ravenna buildings.

The Liebfrauenkirche in Duisburg, Germany, designed by Dr. Toni Hermanns, was consecrated on June 4, 1961. It features a distinctive facade with an abstract ornament and a Moses relief.

The Liebfrauenkirche is probably the second oldest church in the city after St. Peter's Cathedral. Although it was first documented in April 1293, many historians now believe that the Liebfrauenkirche was founded as early as the 11th century. During the unsuccessful siege of Bautzen by the Hussites in 1429, the church was destroyed and was consecrated again in 1443. In 1620, during a siege of the city and during the fires of 1634 and 1686, the Church of Our Lady was again largely destroyed and was also frequently remodelled. Between 1864 and 1900, the church took on its present form.

The Liebfrauenkirche is a small Gothic church built probably in the second half of the 14th century. In the 16th century, the high tower was erected. The Baroque interior was further redesigned in the 18th century.

Liepājas Catholic Cathedral was first built in stone in 1747 as a parish church dedicated to St. Joseph, but as the town grew, the number of Catholics increased and the old church became narrow. The church was therefore enlarged from 1893 to 1911, in brick and in the neo-Romanesque style. It was not until 1938 that the church became a cathedral.

Lieto Church is a medieval stone church probably built in the 1470s and 1480s. A neo-Gothic red brick choir was added to the church in 1902. The altarpiece was painted by Eero Järnefelt in 1908.
