The Bjugn church was consecrated in 1956 after the old church burned down in 1952. Much of the furnishings come from the old church: the altarpiece, paintings and baptismal font. The altarpiece is from 1520, probably made in Northern Germany.

Austråt Castle Chapel

Austråt Castle Chapel was built in brick around 1200. Mrs Ingerd Ottesdatter (1475-1555) was one of the most prominent and atypical owners of Austratt. She played an important role in Norwegian history, especially in connection with the introduction of the Reformation. The main building was constructed in her time. The eastern part, the chapel and the tower, date from 1150-1220 and are therefore much older.
