Øyslebø church is a cruciform church dating from 1797. The church that stands today is the third on the site. The first was a stave church, which was replaced by a new church in 1460 or 1560. When the present church was built, the materials from the previous church were used for the floor.
The Mandal Church of 1819 was designed by the architect Jørgen Gerhard Løser and was built after the town fire in 1810. Solver used James Gibb's copper engraving from 1728 as a model. The church is built of masonry, with plastered walls on the inside and horizontal panels on the outside.
The Harkmark church is a wooden church, probably built in 1613. The choir, which was originally narrower and lower than the ship, was enlarged in 1845 to become as wide as the ship. At the same time, the cross section was removed and the windows were enlarged. The church hall was also given new ceilings and the tower above the porch was erected. When the church was restored in 1972-75, under the direction of C.A. Christensen, the paint was removed from the walls and the painted hangings on the west wall under the organ loft were recreated.
