The Veldre church was built in 2000 after the previous church (from 1726) burned down in 1996. The church is inspired by 19th-century churches, but with modernist features built according to the designs of architects Ulf Zettersten and Roar Jacobsen.

The Brumunddal church is a wooden church in the shape of a boathouse with roofs that reach down to the ground. The church was built according to the plans of architects Sven Erik Lundby, Molle and Per Cappelen in 1965.
The Ringsaker church was probably built in the second half of the 12th century and enlarged in the second half of the 13th century. Originally the church had a rectangular nave with a square chancel, probably with an apsidal end. On the north side of the choir was a narrow sacristy and on the east side of the nave a powerful tower. At the end of the 13th century, the church was enlarged.
The church of Furnes is a characteristic stone church built in 1708, probably modelled on the church of Our Saviour in Christiania. It is one of the few stone churches built at that time. The church is well preserved as it was after its restoration in 1958. In 1876 the church was given a new tower, which replaced the old turret.
