==History==
Støren was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see [[formannskapsdistrikt]]). In 1841, the large municipality of Støren was divided into three municipalities: [[Horg]] in the north, Støren in the east, and [[Soknedal]] in the west. The new, smaller Støren had a population of 2,312. In 1879, the southern part of Støren was separated to form the new municipality of [[Budal]]. This left Støren with 1,840 residents. On 1 January 1964, the municipalities of [[Budal]], [[Soknedal]], [[Singsås]], and Støren were merged to form the new municipality of [[Midtre Gauldal]]. Prior to the merger, Støren had a population of 2,296.<ref>{{cite web|first=Dag|last=Jukvam|publisher=[[Statistics Norway|Statistisk sentralbyrå]]|title=Historisk oversikt over endringer i kommune- og fylkesinndelingen|year=1999|url=http://www.ssb.no/emner/00/90/rapp_9913/rapp_9913.pdf|language=Norwegian}}</ref>

7290 Støren

Støren is the administrative centre of Midtre Gauldal municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. The village is located in the Gauldalen valley at the confluence of the rivers Gaula and Sokna. Støren is located on the European route E06 highway, about 50 kilometres (31 mi) south of the city of Trondheim. The junction between the Dovrebanen and Rørosbanen railway lines is at Støren Station in the northern part of the village. Støren Church, a school, government services, and commercial and industrial sites are all located in the village.[3]

The 2.43-square-kilometre (600-acre) village has a population (2018) of 2,276 and a population density of 937 inhabitants per square kilometre (2,430/sq mi).[1]

Name[edit]

The village (and parish/municipality) was named after the old Støren farm (Old Norse: Staurin), since the first Støren Church was built there. The first element is staurr' which means "pointed pole" and the last element is vin which means "meadow" or "pasture". The word staurr is probably referring to the pointed headland on which the church is located. The two rivers that form this headland are the Gaula and Sokna.[4]
