- Netherlands American Cemetery, 10 km east of Maastricht, on the N278. The World War II Netherlands American Cemetery and Memorial is the final resting ground for 8,301 American soldiers who lost their life in this region during the Second World War. It is on a hill in Margraten, along the ancient road from Maastricht to Aachen. Viewing the thousands of white crosses on the green fields and the tall Walls of the Missing, with the names of another 1722 missing American soldiers engraved, is a humbling and impressive experience.
- Sint-Margaritakerk, Pastoor Brouwersstraat 21. The 19th-century church of Margraten is in the heart of the village. Its tower is older, late medieval, and the church as a whole is dedicated to Margaret the Virgin.
