Brydalen Church

The Brydalen church is a small church built in 1883 according to the drawings of Ole Buhagen. The church has a polygonal shaped choir with a sacristy added in the extension. In 1930 the exterior was renovated, when, among other things, the roof was covered with slate and a tower with cornices was added. The church was first built as a "school chapel" and remained so until the completion of the Brydalen School in 1923. In 1926 a major restoration of the interior of the church was carried out.

Tynset Church

Tynset Church was built after the old church of 1708 burned down in 1792. The church was consecrated in 1795, and the master-builder of the Røros Copper Works, Peder Ellingsen, supervised the construction work. The church in Røros was a model, but in a smaller size and with other materials.

Alvdal Church

The church in Alvdal was built according to the plans of Christian H. Grosch in 1861. The church was clad with exterior panels and painted white in 1867.

The interior is relatively well preserved from the time of construction, but the colours come from the restoration of 1958-60.
