Notodden Church is a 1938 church. The architects, Dagfinn Morseth and Mads Wiel Gedde, won an architectural competition in 1932. The project has strong similarities with the church in Lillestrøm, which was designed by the same architects.
The Stave Church of Heddal was built in the first half of the 13th century. This church played an important role in the description and preservation of Norwegian stave churches. It was restored successively in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Before the present church, Gransherad had a stave church dating from the 1300s which was demolished in 1849. The church in Gransherad was erected by the builder Halvor Andreas Olsen according to a drawing by the castle architect H.D.F. Linstow and consecrated on September 11, 1849. The vestry dates back to the 1930s.
