  In 1341 count Dietrich IX moved stift Monterberg (Kalkar) to Kleve and replaced the Johanniskirche by a new Collegiate Church, in 1356 the choir was consecrated, completed in 1426. Heavily damaged in 1794 during the invasion of French revolutionary troops, destroyed again during WW II, reconstruction in 1951. In the enormous space massive pillars of trachyte support arches and vaults, thus simultaneously dividing the enormous Church Hall in a nave and two aisles. Beautiful is the restored Marian-altar in the choir (H. Douverman) and the crusifix-altar in the aisle at the right handside (created mid-16th century in Antwerp). Furthermore the epitaph in the choir of the right handside aisle, the Ducal Tomb, the northern entrance hall and the main altar.
