The Catholic parish church of St. James was first named in 1448 as a church dedicated to St. Jakob in Greding attests. It is a listed building and has a designation of the Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict. The church is not facing east, but rather facing north. The interior is very grand.

The overall impression of the church is shaped by the 14 oversized Stations of the Cross. They were painted in the Baroque style in 1764 by the Beilngries painter Johann Michael Schäfer and largely painted over in the Nazarene style by Sebastian Holzner in 1875. The first Station of the Cross is closest to its original state.
