St. Marien
ein Bau in Rheinischer Spätromanik, ist die katholische Pfarrkirche. Bereits 1337 wurde eine Kapelle an dieser urkundlich erwähnt. Die Grundsteinlegung für die heutige kath. Pfarrkirche erfolgte 1654 durch die Abtissin Anna Salomee. Der Bau begann erst im Jahre 1717 and wurde 1725 vollendet. Die Konsekration fand 1722 durch den Kölner Weihbischof Johann Werner de Veyder statt. Im Erweiterungsbau aus dem Jahr 1977 befindet sich ein gotisches Silberkreuz mit einer kostbaren Kreuzreliquie des Templerordens.
Noch heute ist der alte Kirchturm das Wahrzeichen der Stadt Bad Breisig.
