The church of Saksumdal was built in 1875 by the architect J. W. Nordan. In the 1930s, the church received a new sacristy east of the choir. The interior is characterized by the renovation in 1951-54, when, among other things, the choir roof was lowered. The altarpiece is a cross in a Biedermeier-style frame from 1875.

Fåberg Church, which was completed in 1727, is a half-timbered cruciform church with exterior panels and a low west tower. The congregation had bought the church site in 1723, in connection with the king of 1721, who sold a total of 620 churches in the country to congregations and private individuals. It was decided to build a new church, which was to be built on Onsumjordet and not on the site of the old one, which was a stave church from the second half of the twelfth century.
