The church in Hof is a medieval stone church built in 1150. In the 1600's a sacristy was built at the eastern end of the choir and in 1815 it was given a porch on the west side. The choir was originally smaller than it is today, and the windows in the south wall were enlarged and added in the 17th century. In 1940, the church was restored and the gallery on the north wall was removed and replaced by a two-storey gallery on the west wall.
Eidsfoss Church was built in 1904 from wood with vertical planks. The exterior of the church gives the impression of being a cruciform church with a tower above the centre. Inside, it is a long church with narrower choirs where the arms of the cross house sacristies with galleries above.
The church of Vassås was built around 1200. When it was rebuilt in 1846, the church hall was given galleries along the west and north walls, but the north was demolished in 1905. The hexagonal pulpit from 1588 is one of the oldest in Vestfold.
Tuft Church is a long church dating from 1880. The previous church on the site was a single-nave stave church dating from the Middle Ages. The Stave church was first mentioned in 1366.
