The church in Kongsberg, which was consecrated in 1761, was designed by J. A. Stukenbrock, but it was M. Heltzen who completed the building after Stukenbrock's death. Kongsberg was the second largest town in Norway at that time due to the silver industry, and the location and size of the church show that it was a prestigious building for the town. Externally, the church has a simple brick exterior with large arched windows and high ceilings, and a tower that rises above the roof on the arm of the cross behind the altarpiece.
The church of Svene is a cruciform church from 1738. It was built on the same plan and of approximately the same size as the main church and the annex church in Lyngdal.
The church of Hedenstad is a medieval stone church that was built in 1100. The interior was completely redone in 1889 and the exterior was restored in the 20th century, mainly in the 1950s and 1960s.
