The church in Tvoroyri rises high above the village and can be seen from far away. It was constructed in Norway as a building set, moved to Tvoroyri and then built here in 1907. The old church was moved to Sandvik.

In the centre of Tvoroyri, just above the harbour, is "Hotel Tvoroyri". Between the harbour and the hotel lies a square covered by flat stones. Fish used to be dried in the sun here. The Royal Trade Monopoly that had a branch here from 1836 to 1856 built the old houses in the area. The village of Tvoroyri was actually founded due to this branch.

When the monopoly was abolished in 1856, private companies were founded on Tvoroyri. One of these grew into the largest in the Faroe Islands. It had 20 branches and 30 ships. There also lies a museum in the area above the harbour. Tvoroyri has a large fillet-factory that initiated its production in 1975.

From Tvoroyri one can take a nice walk across the mountains to a valley called Hvannhagi. There is a nice view over the valley and the sea from above the valley. It is also possible to go down into the valley by following the track after the gate.

Tvoroyri and Vagur take turns in hosting an annual civic-festival called Joansoka. It can be described as a smaller version of the Olavsoka held in Torshavn. It runs in late June.
