Rennebu is a municipality in the county of Sør-Trøndelag, Norway.

Rennebu was separated from Meldal in 1839.

The administrative centre of the municipality is Berkåk (on the E6).

The name

The Norse form of the name was Rennabú. The first element is, maybe, the plural genitive case of renna f 'journey, march; road'. (Two old important roads cross the municipality: One follows the river Orkla from Trondheimsfjord to Østerdalen - another, from Gudbrandsdalen and Oppdal to Gauldalen and Trondheim, crosses the valley at Berkåk.) The last element is bú n 'rural district'.

Coat-of-arms

The coat-of-arms is from modern times (1982). The figure is meant to represent the old church of Rennebu from 1669 - which is shaped like an Y.
