The Roman Catholic parish church of St. Laurentius in Windeck-Dattenfeld was built in 1879-1880 instead of a previous building demolished in 1878 as a two-tower church in the neo-Romanesque style. Because of the double tower facade (tower height 56 m) the church is often called "Siegtaldom". The two lower floors of the north tower come from the old parish church from the 12/13. Century, which was originally probably only a chapel, but was extended to a three-aisled church with a length of approx. 25.60 m and a width of 7.85 m and was already consecrated to St. Lawrence of Rome.
