Veøy church

The Veøy church was built in 1907 and designed by the architect Karl Martin Norum. The church has the characteristics of Dragestil's churches. Most of the churches that were built at that time are white, but this one is red with white windows and doors. Inside, the church is painted with a combination of shades of brown. The same ochre colours are found in much of the interior. Sometimes a slightly cooler colour is used for decorative details, blue, red, green and gold.

Rødven Church

The new church in Rødven was designed by J.Z.M. Kielland in 1907 to replace the Stave church below. The new church was built in slatted planks and its exterior is panelled and painted red with white and green trim. The church was given "Dragestil" forms and aisle-shaped naves. Above the main entrance there is a tower with a simple, tall and slender capital.

Rødven's Stave Church

Rødven's Stave church was built around 1300, but its choir dates from the 18th century. The sacristy, porch and eaves are also later additions. Inside, the church is characterised by restorations from the 17th and 18th centuries. When the site's new church was consecrated in 1907, the Society for the Preservation of Ancient Norwegian Monuments took over the moat church.
