A Gothic town hall stands in the area around the market square. The history of St. Peter's parish church dates back to the 12th century. A memorial plaque on Maria-Kann-Weg commemorates the life and work of the person after whom the street is named.

The Alte Kellnerei, dating from 1573, is the only surviving evidence of the former electoral palace. The customs/powder tower in Rheinberg dates from 1293. A local history presentation is also associated with Rheinberg.
