This church is situated on the central hill of the town, La Kippchen, that also by the Gallo-Roman people was used as a centre of habitation and defense. In the 11th century a stronghold was built on this hill, which later got destroyed by the French in 1558. Between 1621 and 1626 the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin built their abbey and church on the ruins of the stronghold. From the church tower you can have an undisturbed view on Belgium, Luxembourg and France. The carillon every hour plays Zu Arel op der Knippchen, a traditional song of the Arlon region and the officious hymn of the Belgian province of Luxembourg.
The Synagogue of Arlon is the oldest one in Belgium and was built in 1863-1865 in neo-Roman style for the Jewish community which at that time counted 150 people. Services are rare since almost all Jewish people have left Arlon.

The original column was discovered in 1972 during construction works. This column is a replica placed here in the 1990s to evoke the Gallo-Roman past of the city.
