The main church of the parish is the Church of Our Lady and St Michael in Ennistymon, built in 1954 by Fr. John Jennings.[4] The second church of the parish is the Church of Our Lady The Immaculate Conception in Lahinch, also built in 1954. Both 1954 churches replaced older churches.[5] The third church of the parish is the Church of St. Columba in Clouna, built in 1846 by Fr. John Sheehan.[6]

In the townland Furglan, the old national school was used as a auxiliary church. Later on, it was closed due to changing demands.[7]
