The municipality was established on 1 January 1895 whenUlstein Municipality was divided into two municipalities. The part of Ulstein Municipality located north of theVartdalsfjorden (population: 2,996) remained as a smaller Ulstein Municipality and the part of the old Ulstein Municipality located south of theVartdalsfjorden (population: 736) became the newVartdalsstrand Municipality. The name was officially shortened toVartdal Municipality in 1918.[9]

During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of theSchei Committee. On 1 January 1964, Vartdal Municipality (population: 1,315) was merged withHjørundfjord Municipality (population: 1,728) andØrsta Municipality (population: 6,209) to form a new, largerØrsta Municipality.[9]

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally theparish) is named after the oldVartdal farm (Old Norse:Varpdalr orVerpdalr) since the firstVartdal Church was built there. The first element comes from the old name for a local river. The name of the river comes from the wordverpa, or its past tense formvarp, which means "to cast" or "to throw" a fishing net. The last element isdalr which means "valley" or "dale". Historically, the municipal name wasVartdalsstranden. The suffix-stranden is the definite singular form of theOld Norse wordstrǫnd which means "beach" or "shore".[10] Historically, the name of the municipality was spelledVartdalsstranden. On 3 November 1917, aroyal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality toVartdal.[11]

[edit]

TheChurch of Norway had one parish (sokn) within Vartdal Municipality. At the time of the municipal dissolution, it was part of the Ørstaprestegjeld and theSøre Sunnmøre prosti (deanery) in theDiocese of Bjørgvin.[8]
