The parish of Ølen was established as a municipality on 1 July 1916 when it was split off from the large municipality ofFjelberg. Initially, Ølen had 1,715 residents. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of theSchei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the neighboring municipality ofVikebygd was dissolved and the eastern half of it (population: 578) was merged into the municipality of Ølen.[5]

On 1 January 2002, the municipality of Ølen was transferred administratively fromHordaland county toRogaland county. On 1 January 2003, the people of Ølen and the neighboring municipality ofVindafjord held a merger referendum which was successful. On 1 January 2006, Ølen and Vindafjord merged, forming a larger municipality called Vindafjord. Before the merger, Ølen had a population of 3,426. The coat of arms of the new Vindafjord municipality bears the design of the old Ølen arms and the colours of the old Vindafjord arms.[4][5]

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally theparish) is named after theØlsfjorden (Old Norse:Ǫlund) since it was a central geographical feature of the municipality. The meaning of the name is uncertain, but it may come from the wordala which means "to produce" or "to nourish", possibly referring to the rich fishing in the fjord.[6]

Coat of arms

[edit]

Thecoat of arms was granted on 4 April 1986. The officialblazon is"Gyronnyembowedargent andvert" (Norwegian:Åttedelt av sølv og grønt ved virvelsnitt). This means the arms are a whirl design that divides the shield into 8 curved sections. Thefield (background) alternates colors, with half having atincture of green and the other half have a tincture ofargent which means it is commonly colored white, but if it is made out of metal, then silver is used. The design was chosen to symbolise the way that several major roads come together in the municipality, making it an important centre of trade. The arms were designed by Vigdis Viland. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.[7][8][9]

Government

[edit]

While it existed, this municipality was responsible forprimary education (through 10th grade), outpatienthealth services,senior citizen services,unemployment,social services,zoning,economic development, and municipalroads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by amunicipal council ofdirectly elected representatives. Themayor wasindirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.[10] The municipality was under the jurisdiction of theGulating Court of Appeal.
