V občini Straža imamo pet cerkva. Farna cerkev sv. Jakoba v Vavti vasi ima dve podružnici: Cerkev sv. Tomaža v Straži in cerkev Marije Tolažnice žalostnih na Drganjih selih. Cerkev Vnebovzetja Matere božje v nekdanji Dolnji Straži in cerkev sv. Martina v Zalogu pa sta podružnični cerkvi sv. Antona v Prečni. Poleg cerkva pa je v občini veliko razpel, križev in kapelic, ki so jih občani postavili v zahvalo ali priprošnjo. Cerkev sv. Jakoba v Vavti vasi je baročna župnijska cerkev zasnovana v 18. stoletju, ki jo krasi Goldensteinova scenska arhitektura oltarjev iz leta 1855. Cerkev Sv. Tomaža iz 14. stoletja in romanska ladja ter tristrani prezbiterij z grebenastim obokom iz 17. stoletja. Cerkev sv. Marije, tolažnice žalostnih na Drganjih Selih iz srednjega veka je bila v začetku 18. stol. temeljito barokizirana. Današnji prezbiterij je obokan. Stranska oltarja sta iz 18. stoletja. Križev pot, naslikan na papir in z napisi v bohoričici, je ljudsko delo. Cerkev Vnebovzetja Matere božje v nekdanji Dolnji Straži je baročna cerkev s konca 17. stoletja natančneje iz leta 1690. Cerkev je pozidana na osmerokotni tlorisni osnovi s prislonjenim zvonikom in plitvo kapelo. Cerkev sv. Martina v Zalogu - leto graditve ali posvetitve nista znana, omenjena pa je v popisu cerkva škofa Bizancija leta 1581. Domneva se, da je tu prvotno stala kapelica. Cerkvena ladja je pravokotna, baročno obokana. Prezbiterij je tudi pravokoten, zaključen v gotskem stilu.
