The church of Evanger is a long church from 1851. The oldest mention of a church in Evanger dates from the mid 14th century. The medieval church was most probably a stave church. It is not known exactly how long the medieval church was, but it was probably replaced by a wooden church in the 17th century. The 17th-century church remained until it was replaced by the modern church in 1851.
The Bergsdalen church was completed in 1955. The architect of the building was Leiv Tvilde. The furniture dates from the year of construction or a later year and Leiv Tvilde also designed the altar, the baptismal font and the pulpit. The altarpiece, dating from 1968, is a triptych by Ole Gabriel Dahl.
The Voss church is a stone church dating from 1271. The church underwent a major restoration led by Chr. Christie in the 1870s. The only thing that remains of the original medieval furniture is the stone altar.
Dale's church is a long church dating back to 1956. The church is built in concrete according to the plans of Arnstein Arneberg. It was built around the Dale Textile Mills, and did not get a chapel until 1896. Before that, people used to go to Bruvik church on Osterøy.
