The Selje church, inaugurated in 1866, is a project of the architect F. H. Stockfleth. It is built in a relatively simple Gothic-Swiss style, with a gable-shaped window frame and exceptional quality carpentry work on the walls. The church is located on the shore and overlooks the island of Selje to the west.
The church in Ervik is a small brick long church, built in 1970. The designs for the church were started by architect Arnstein Arneberg and continued by architect Olav Platou after Arneberg's death in 1961. The west tower has an onion-shaped dome. The church had the status of a chapel until Ervik became its own parish in 1997.
