The city's landmark is the Collegiate Church of Notre Dame de Dinant.
It was rebuilt in Gothic style on its old foundations after falling rocks from the adjacent cliff partially destroyed the former Romanesque style church in 1227.
Several stages for a pair of towers on the west end were completed before the project was abandoned in favour of the present central tower with a famous onion dome and facetted multi-staged lantern.

Above the church rises the vertical flank of the rocher surmounted by the fortified Citadel of Dinant that was first built in the 11th century to control the Meuse valley.
 The Prince-Bishops of Liège rebuilt and enlarged it in 1530; the French destroyed it in 1703.
Its present aspect, with the rock-hewn stairs (408 steps), is due to rebuilding in 1821, during the United Kingdom of the Netherlands phase of Dinant's chequered history.
A cable car is available during the high season to take visitors from the Collegiate Church of Notre-Dame to the top of the Citadel.

Apart from the main block is the Rocher Bayard that was said to have been split by giant hoof of Bayard, the giant horse carrying the four sons of Duke Aymon on their legendary flight from Charlemagne through the Ardennes, told in Les Quatre Fils Aymon, a famous 12th-century chanson de geste.
In reality the rock has been divided by the soldiers of Louis XIV after the conquest of Dinant in order to construct a road alongside the river Meuse.

The house of Adolphe Sax, inventor of the saxophone located in the street of the same name.
A little museum, the Mr Sax's House, pays attention to his life and saxophones.
