Arholma Church
Arholma Church is located on the island of Arholma, on Kvarnberget above Kägelbacken. The church was originally a mission house on Kungsholmen, which was moved to Arholma in the 1920s.
Björkö-Arholma Church
Björkö-Arholma Church is located on Björkö, on a rocky knoll by the road towards Simpnäs, opposite Dragsviken. During a renovation in the 1950s, the church received its distinguished chancel painting, Himlalotsen (The Heaven Pilot), made by the artist and Björkö son Harald Lindberg.
Blidö Church
Blidö historically belonged to the Länna parish. In the 1700s, Erik Lejonhuvud was granted permission to build a chapel on the island, something that was not popular with the people of Länna, who thereby lost the contribution towards the upkeep of Länna Church.
Bogesund Castle Chapel in Vaxholm
Already in the time of Per Brahe the Younger, there seems to have been a place of worship in the castle. In the sources, the great hall on the fourth floor is sometimes called the church hall, because it was there that the count married his second wife in 1653.
Börstil Church
Börstil Church is a spacious neoclassical hall church with a tall, sturdy tower. Because of its size, it's also colloquially known as the cathedral of Roslagen. In the chancel there is an altarpiece from 1737 by Olof Gerdman, and in the chancel vault there are still partial lime paintings from the Middle Ages.

Edsbro Church, from the 1200s, is clearly visible where it sits on the ridge with its festive roof ornaments. In the gateway to the churchyard, a small staircase leads up to a loft with an opening towards the churchyard. From here, important information and sermons were announced to the congregation.
