Dagda Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Church – a national architectural monument. Built in 1741 in the Corinthian Baroque style.

The church was commissioned by the nobleman Jānis Augusts Hilzen (1702–1767). It has six ornate altars, including three magnificent masonry altars with cornices and pilasters. The main altar features two paintings – the Holy Trinity and the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary. The church also has a baptismal font made of plaster figures.

Beneath the church, in the underground vaults, members of the Hilzen family are buried – J.A. Hilzen himself, his son Justiniāns (a Knight of the Order of Malta), and his grandson Idzi, as well as notable Jesuits from Dagda and Kaunata, Michael Roth (1721–1785) and Columbian Pfeifer (1747–1798).

On the 11th of each month at 11:00 a.m., a Mass for the sick is held, praying for physical and spiritual health. Water, salt, and medicines are blessed.
