The Orkanger Church is a long church dating from 1892. Initially, the church was characterised by the Swiss chalet style, but the façade was simplified somewhat in 1950 when the church was re-panelled and the tower was modified. The church changed its colour several times from brown to yellow and then from brown to white (in 1991).
The church in Agdenes was built in 1857 according to the designs of the architect Christian Heinrich Grosch. The church has a gallery, which was added in 1982. Originally, there was a bell tower in the middle of the nave, so that the bell rang from the middle of the church hall. But in 1869 a separate tower was built over the church entrance. The church in Agdenes was due to be consecrated on 24 March 1858, but the weather was so bad that the dedication had to be postponed for two days.
