The parish church of Saint Ceinwr is the resting place of David Charles the famous Welsh hymn-writer. The oldest part of the present church building dates possibly from the 14th century, But the site has probably been a holy place since the earliest years of Celtic Christianity.
The vicars of St Ceinwr's can be traced back to at least 1661 and are recorded on the Incumbent board inside the church.
A stone tablet inside the church commemorates the well-known essayist and politician Sir Richard Steele. The organ was a gift from the Francis family, installed in 1951, and originally stood in the mansion at Deri Ormond, Betws Bledrws, Ceredigion.

The Temple of Edfu is one of the best preserved ancient shrines in Egypt. It was built in the Ptolemaic Kingdom between 237 and 57 BC.
Edfu was one of several temples built during the Ptolemaic Kingdom, including the Dendera Temple complex, Esna, the Temple of Kom Ombo, and Philae. Its size reflects the relative prosperity of the time. The present temple initially consisted of a pillared hall, two transverse halls, and a barque sanctuary surrounded by chapels. The building was started during the reign of Ptolemy III Euergetes and completed in 57 BC under Ptolemy XII Auletes. It was built on the site of an earlier, smaller temple also dedicated to Horus, although the previous structure was oriented east–west rather than north–south as in the present site.
