Skaun Church is a medieval stone church with a rectangular nave and lower choir and narrower at the right end. The south and west portals of the nave are richly designed and bear stone carving marks similar to those found on the octagon of the Nidaros Cathedral. The church was restored in 1930 according to Erling Gjone's plans. In the nave, frescoes were discovered on the wall of the choir.
The Horg church, which was consecrated in 1893, is a monumental cruciform church built according to the designs of the architect Carl Johan Bergström. It is characterized by a neo-Gothic and Swiss style and is very well preserved both inside and out.
The present Moe Church is the third church in Svorkmo. A church for the factory workers was built on Skankebakken in 1675 and was destroyed by a flood in 1816. In the same year, an octagonal wooden church was built on Smedhaugen, about one kilometre further north. This church was demolished in 1866 and a new church was built on Moe. The church on Moe was designed by Ole Fredriksen Rømmesmo and Børre Thorstensen Wulvig, built in 1866-67 and consecrated on 28 December 1867.
