The Munsterkerk (Munster) is a 13th-century church dedicated to Our Lady in the Dutch town of Roermond. Its remarkable front towers are 55 meter in height. The Munsterkerk is one of the most important examples of Late Romanesque architecture in the Netherlands. The Roermond Minster is the only surviving part of an abbey, the rest of which was demolished in 1924. The church was renovated by architect P. J. H. Cuypers between 1863 and 1890; during this renovation, the two front towers were added while after a smaller baroque bell tower on the nave was removed, and the originally octagonal eastern towers were replaced by square ones. The renovation of the Roermond Minster was highly controversial, but Cuypers continued to renovate the Minster according to his plan.

The Kepelse Meule or Mill at the Chapel is a former windmill at Herkenbosscherweg 34 in Roermond. This round stone mill is equipped as a flour mill and was built as a ground sailer in 1882 as a replacement for the wooden standard mill of Leonard Janssen near the Bredeweg in Roermond, which burned down in 1880. A few years after its construction, the mill was raised to a belt mill, with the superstructure made cylindrical to be able to use the existing mill cap. On February 13, 1896, an application was made to build a warehouse and place a couple of stones in it powered by a gas steam engine, which was later replaced by a gasoline engine and still later by an electric motor.
