Holy Trinity Church, Leven is situation in the centre of the village and is a Grade II* listed building. It was built between 1843-1845 on a site donated by Sir Richard Bethel in 1843.
Initially, the village church of Pierreclos was next to the castle. You can still see it today: a beautiful Romanesque tower dating from the 12th century, within the walls of the castle (on the left of the castle on the photo) . This is all that remains of the original church, as its nave was burnt down during the Wars of Religion in the 16th century. When the village was built at the foot of the hill on which the castle lays, the villagers wanted to have their own church in the village. The Romanesque tower within the castle walls then became a private chapel. The current church of the village was erected between 1771 and 1779, It replaced a first church closed in 1735 which threatened to collapse.
In the photo, we can make out a third church in the distance behind the castle. This is the church of Serrière, It dates from the 13th century.

Histoires d'églises
Initialement, l'église du village de Pierreclos était à côté du château. On la voit encore de nos jours : une belle tour romane qui date du 12ème siècle, dans l'enceinte du château (sur la gauche du château sur la photo). C'est tout ce qui reste de l'église d'origine, car sa nef a été incendiée pendant les guerres de religion au 16ème siècle. Lorsque le village s'est construit au pied de la colline sur lequel se trouve le château, les villageois ont voulu avoir leur propre église dans le village. La tour romane dans l'enceinte du château est alors devenue une chapelle privée. L'église actuelle du village fut érigée entre 1771 et 1779, elle a remplacé une première église fermée en 1735 qui menaçait de s'effondrer.
Sur la photo, on devine au loin derrière le château une 3ème église. C'est l'église de Serrière, elle date du 13ème siècle

Церква св. Параскеви збудована у 1891 р. у нині затопленому селі В’юнище Переяславського повіту. У 1971 р. перевезена, а у 1973 р. встановлена на природному підвищенні рівнинного плато лесової тераси у межах скансену.
Історія церкви у селі В’юнище пов’язана із родиною Дараганів. Наприкінці ХVII ст. Федір Дараган оселився поблизу старого русла Дніпра за 9 верст від Переяслава. У 1708 р. він отримав у володіння всі угіддя, що розташовувались навколо хутора «В’юнищанського». У зв’язку із швидким збільшенням кількості населення у межах окресленої території, військові старшини Петро Дараган, Аксенфієв, Данько, Савенко та Бойко вирішили побудувати дерев’яну церкву. Вона була закладена на трисажневій відстані від першого поселення Савенка. Храм освятили в ім’я святої Великомучениці Параскеви.
