The Bezno Castle is a Baroque complex from the mid-18th century, built on the site of an older fortress. Its current form dates from 1817, when it was reconstructed after a fire. Today it is privately owned and unused.[6][7]

The landmark of the town square is the Church of Saints Peter and Paul. It was built in the Baroque style in 1750–1763.[8]

A valuable building is the former Renaisannce granary. It dates from 1605.[9]
