Strandvik Church is a long church from 1857. The architect of the church was Frederik Hannibal Stockfleth. The church was probably built just north of an older wooden church from 1628, which itself replaced a stave church from the Middle Ages.
The church of Os is a long church dating from 1870. The first mentioned church in Os, probably a stave church, is from the 14th century. This church was replaced by a wooden church built in 1624. As the population of the parish had increased considerably in the 19th century, a new church law was introduced in 1851, which required that each church building should accommodate at least 30% of the parish's inhabitants. As a result, instead of renovating the old church, it was decided to build a completely new church.
Nore Neset church is a church completed in 2000. The altarpiece is made by Gunnar Torvund, the church silver by goldsmith Pål Vigeland and the textile by Aud Marit Bjørnevik.
