Fon Church

Våle Church is a stone church dating from 1190, which underwent two major repairs between 1683 and 1747. The church was given a sacristy in the east and was extended eight metres to the west. From 1673 to 1770, the church belonged to Jarlsberg County, but it was not until 1859 that it became part of the parish. The tower was built in 1871-72 and was subsequently repaired. When the church was renovated in 1871-72, the church was redecorated, only the altarpiece was kept and three private family chairs were removed from the galleries.

The church in Vivestad is a long church dating from 1914, although there has been a church in Vivestad since the Middle Ages. The old church from 1628 burned down in 1911, but the furniture was saved and is used in the present church.

The church is probably from the 13th century and is one of the largest stave churches. In 1948-53 major modifications were made and the church was then given the design it has today. The new exterior of the church is based on assumptions and interpretations of what the church might have looked like in the early post-Reformation period. The nave contains remnants of painted medieval decorations, while the choir decorations were mainly rebuilt by Finn Kraft in 1959-64.
