List of former municipalities in Norway

The list of former municipalities in Norway is a list of the former Norwegian municipalities that no longer exist today. Usually these were merged and merged with another municipality, or were divided among others. The list does not include the smaller geographic areas that have been transferred from one municipality to another, or renaming. Almost all of these municipalities in this table have disappeared or merged. The former municipalities in this list are sorted according to the Norwegian administrative district or provinces, the county and provided with the number of the municipality and the year of the changes and the result of the changes.

When municipal administrations and councils and so-called Formannskapsdistrikt (administrative units) were introduced in Norway from 1837 to 1838 , the country had 392 municipalities. Later in the course of several new foundations and divisions of municipalities, so that despite some mergers, the number of these increased. In 1935 Norway consisted of 682 rural communes ( herreder ) and 65 urban communes ( bykommuner ). In 1946 the Schei Committee was established as a committee and chaired by Nikolai Schei in order to examine the efficiency of the many Norwegian municipalities . As a result, hundreds of parish mergers were proposed in order to reduce the number of parishes and improve the quality of local administrations. Most of the parish mergers were eventually carried out, albeit with considerable protest from the population.

In January 2006 there were only 431 municipalities left in Norway , and there were new plans for further mergers and political pressure to implement this. In 2002, the then municipal and regional minister and later prime minister Erna Solberg expressed her wish that it was time to reduce the number of current municipalities to 100. Your ministry then spent around 140 million crowns on a corresponding project to explore the possibilities for further mergers. Several referendums were then held in the municipalities concerned, along with the 2003 Norwegian municipal elections. A small number of parishes voted for the plan; such as Frei for the merger with Kristiansund , which took place on January 1, 2008. Other municipalities rejected the plans after the referendums, such as Hobøl and Spydeberg , as well as Hol and Ål . However, in early 2006, plans for further mergers were abandoned under Solberg's successor Åslaug Haga .

Some municipalities only existed for a limited time, such as Flakstad and Hole , which were former municipalities between 1964 and 1976. In cases like these, the previous amalgamated communes were dissolved again and the former communes were placed under self-government again. On the other hand, a small number of the newly created churches were abolished in the same way. For example the commune of Tolga-Os , which came into being as a result of a merger in 1966, but was dissolved again in 1976.
