Hovin Church is a cruciform wooden church with a vestry on the north side of the chancel and a tower in front of the western cross arm. The church was completed in 1695 and replaced a 14th-century stave church. The interior underwent major changes in 1855.
Heni church is a wooden church in Gjerdrum. It was built in 1864 by an unknown architect. In the church, there is a crucifix dating from the 14th century.
The present church in Gjerdrum was built in 1686. The previous church, which may have been from the Middle Ages, burned down in 1684. In 1859-61, the church underwent extensive alterations and repairs. At that time, the church must have received new exterior and interior cladding, a new ceiling and new doors and windows. Probably also at this time, the present sacristy to the east of the choir was erected.
