    The parish church of St. Markus in Stein has a three-part bell made by the Junker bell foundry in 1949. The bells are cast in the so-called Briloner special bronze. The Te Deum motif is heard in the melody line. In addition, there is a small, historical bell in the bell room, which is rung as a death knell.
    In a bell tower attached to the side of the choir room of the parish church, the bells are still hanging on the old wooden yokes of the previous bells in a historical wooden bell chair.
    The tower has clock faces on four sides. The three Junker bells are integrated into the clock strike. Bells 2 and 3 strike the quarter hour, bell 1 strikes the hour. An electromechanical clockwork is installed on one of the tower's mezzanines.

      The nave of St. Mark's Church is bright, festive and yet simple. This style was very modern at the time of its construction around 1832. Inside the church you can see the sculpture "Mother of God on the crescent moon" from about 1500.
