When municipal government was established in Norway on 1 January 1838, the Åsnes area was part ofHof Municipality. In 1849, Hof municipality was divided into two: Hof (population: 2,913) andÅsnes og Våler (population: 7,087). A short time later, in 1854, the municipality of Åsnes og Våler was divided into the two current municipalities ofVåler (population: 3,410) and Åsnes (population: 3,677).[6]

During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of theSchei Committee. On 1 January 1963,Hof Municipality (population: 3,222) was merged into Åsnes Municipality (population: 6,750). On 1 January 1969, theRotberget farm area (population: 23) in theFinnskogen part of the municipality was transferred to the neighboring municipality ofGrue.[6] In the 2010s, there had been talk of further municipal mergers but the neighboring municipalities ofGrue and Våler both rejected merging with Åsnes.

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally theparish) is named after the oldÅsnes farm (Old Norse:Ásnes) since the firstÅsnes Church was built there. The first element isáss which means "mountainridge". The last element isnes which means "headland". The headland that it is referring to is made by the riverGlomma near the Åsnes farm which is located beneath a hill.[7] On 21 December 1917, aroyal resolution enacted the1917 Norwegian language reforms. Prior to this change, the name was spelledAasnes with thedigraph "Aa", and after this reform, the name was spelledÅsnes, using the letterÅ instead.[8][9]

Coat of arms

[edit]

Thecoat of arms was granted on 9 December 2001. The officialblazon is"Or, threepike hookssable inbend sinister points in basedexter" (Norwegian:I gult tre skrått nedvoksende svarte fløterhaker). This means the arms have afield (background) has atincture ofOr which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. Thecharge is threehooks forlog driving that are pointing downwards diagonally. This was chosen to represent the importance oflogging andforestry to the municipality throughout history. There are three poles to symbolize the three important rivers of the municipality:Glomma,Flisa, and Kynna. The arms were designed by Arvid Steen. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.[10][11][12]
