St. Stephan, also called Stephanskirche, has been the first longer existing Evangelical Church of Würzburg since 1803. It goes back to the monastery church of a Benedictine convention of St. Stephan, which was dissolved by secularization. A few years earlier, the old building of the monastery church was largely demolished in 1788/89 and a new building was built according to Johann Philipp Geigel plans. The old building with the associated monastery buildings goes back to 1014, namely to a former St. Peter and Paul college pencil, which was converted into a Benedictine monastery by Bishop Adalbero in 1057. After the transfer of relics of St. Stephanus, it was only named after this, while the name St. Peter and Paul was transferred to the new parish church. The monastery buildings were used profane after 1803, totally destroyed and removed in 1945. New buildings took up the government of Lower Franconia. The church was rebuilt in 1949–1955 as a flat hedged hall building, inaugurated in 1952 and is now the dean's church of Würzburg. In addition to the existing CVJM from 1963, institutions such as the Rudolf Alexander-Schröder-Haus, an Evangelical bookstore and a advice center of the Diakonie were created in addition to the existing CVJM, which made the place a Würzburg Evangelical Center.

St. Adalbero is a Catholic parish church opened in 1899, was an outpost from 1905 and since 1914 has also been a parish in the Würzburg district of Sanderau, which adjoins the city center in the south. Together with the church of St. Andrew, it forms the parish community of Sanderau and is an outstanding example of neo-Romanesque architecture. The art-historical significance of the Adalbero Church for Würzburg lies above all in the fact that at the time of its construction, all the sculptors and painters living in Würzburg were involved in the interior design.
