Sysmä Church, or St. Olaf Church, is a Lutheran church built around 1520 and extended in 1835 according to the plans of Carl Ludvig Engell. A new bell tower was built in 1845. The pipe organ was delivered by the Kangasalal Organ Factory in 1953.
The medieval church of Hollola was built between 1495 and 1510, first the sacristy in 1495, the nave in 1500 and the entrance in 1505. The church was struck by lightning and burnt down in 1642. While repairing the damage caused by the fire, the church also began to be transformed according to the requirements of the Protestant Reformation. The church was renovated in 1934-1935 according to the plans of Carolus Lindberg. The last renovation was carried out in 2005-2006.
Lammi Church is a medieval Lutheran church dedicated to St. Catherine, built between 1490 and 15103. Until 1918 the interior of the church was made of wood. The wooden church was destroyed by a fire on April 29, 1918, during the Finnish Civil War. The pulpit, most of the archives and the bell tower were destroyed, leaving only the grey stone foundations. The reconstruction of the church and bell tower was designed by Usko Nyström (1861-1925).
