Since 1803, Clervaux has been the seat of a parish and a deanery. Previously, the place belonged to Munshausen in ecclesiastical terms. The first parish church was located on today's market square on the Grossgasse. From 1910 to 1912 it was replaced by the current church, which was built in neo-Romanesque style according to plans by Johannes Franziskus Klomp. The same architect also designed the buildings of the Benedictine abbey. The building is made of slate stones, which means that it is embedded harmoniously in the Öslinger landscape. The veneration of the two martyrs Kosmas and Damian probably goes back to the influence of the Diocese of Liège, to which Clervaux belonged until the French Revolution. Around 1700, Count Albert de Lannoy received relics of these saints from Rome. They are kept in the church to this day. The mosaics on the tympanum above the main portal refer to the patronage of these saints over the church.

The parish church was built in 1910-1911 in Rhenish-Romanesque style and rises on the high rock. In addition to the beautiful twin towers and the particularly melodious carillon, the interior of the church has many attractions to offer, including original works of art by the well-known Aachen church sculptor Lambert Piedboeuf.

This recent neo-Romanesque church was built between 1910 and 1912, then consecrated in 1913. The main façade is particularly distinguished by its wall mosaics. The tympanum of the portal illustrates the patron saints of the church. The upper part represents a Christ in Majesty. Inside, the stained glass windows refer in particular to the saints venerated by popular piety in the region.
