Most residents of Alstahaug live in the town of Sandnessjøen which is situated on the island of Alsta. The characteristic Seven Sisters mountain range is found on the eastern part of the island. Local legend has made this chain of peaks into seven sisters, two adjacent peaks representing twin sisters.

The island is connected to the mainland via the large Helgeland Bridge along Norwegian County Road 17. The Sandnessjøen Airport, Stokka is located 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) south of Sandnessjøen.

The 188-square-kilometre (73 sq mi) municipality is the 308th largest by area out of the 357 municipalities in Norway. Alstahaug is the 137th most populous municipality in Norway with a population of 7,421. The municipality's population density is 39.4 inhabitants per square kilometre (102/sq mi) and its population has increased by 0.4% over the previous 10-year period.[5][6]

General information

[edit]

The large prestegjeld of Alstahaug was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). In 1862, the southern district (population: 2,781) was separated to become the new Tjøtta Municipality (Vevelstad Municipality was later separated from Tjøtta Municipality). This left Alstahaug Municipality with about 3,280 residents. Just two years later, in 1864, the western island district (population: 2,438) was separated to become the new Herøy Municipality. Then on 1 July 1899, the northern district (population: 2,673) was separated to form the new Stamnes Municipality (Leirfjord Municipality was later separated from Stamnes).[7]

During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1965, several major municipal changes took place. First, the Husvær island area of Alstahaug (population: 461) was transferred from Alstahaug Municipality to Herøy Municipality. On the same day, the following areas were merged to form the new, larger Alstahaug Municipality:[7]

On 1 January 1971, the Skålværet islands (population: 32) were transferred from Vega Municipality to Alstahaug Municipality. On 1 January 1995, the mainland areas of Alstahaug Municipality (population: 70) were transferred to Vefsn Municipality.[7]

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Alstahaug farm (Old Norse: Alastarhaugr) since the first Alstahaug Church was built there. The first element is the genitive case of the name of the island Alöst (now Alsta). The linguist Magnus Olsen believed this old island name means "eel grounds" and it was an old taboo word for the sea. The last element is haugr which means "hill" or "mound".[8][9]

Coat of arms

[edit]

The coat of arms was granted on 8 August 1986. The official blazon is "Argent, a fess engrailed azure" (Norwegian: I sølv en blå bjelke dannet ved taggesnitt). This means the arms have a field (background) that has a tincture of argent which means it is commonly colored white, but if it is made out of metal, then silver is used. The charge is a fess (bar) with engrailed edges running horizontally through the arms. The design symbolizes the Seven Sisters (Norwegian: De syv søstre), a row of mountains in the area, mirrored in the clear waters of the fjord. The arms were designed by Jarle E. Henriksen.[10][11][12]

Churches

[edit]

The Church of Norway has three parishes (sokn) within Alstahaug Municipality. It is part of the Nord-Helgeland prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Sør-Hålogaland.

History

[edit]

At Alstahaug, on the southern end of the island of Alsta, lies the medieval Alstahaug Church, where the poet and minister Petter Dass worked around 1700. Tjøtta, an island south of Alsta, is the place where the famous Viking Hárek of Tjøtta resided in the 11th century.

Nature

[edit]

Birdlife

[edit]

Lying just south of the Arctic Circle in an area that is known as Outer Helgeland, Alstahaug offers the visiting bird watcher a chance to do some birding in spectacular scenery, be it coastal or inland where The Seven Sisters mountain chain marks the boundary between the habitats. One of the better areas to birdwatch is the island of Tjøtta. Here you will find the small nature reserve Ostjønna.

Geography

[edit]

Alstahaug is a municipality consisting entirely of islands. Most residents live on the main islands of Alsta and Tjøtta, and Alstahaug stretches from the Skålværet island group in the west, to the Vefsnfjorden in the east, and to Mindlandet island to the south. Leirfjord Municipality, Vefsn Municipality, and Vevelstad Municipality all lie to the east of Alstahaug; Dønna Municipality lies to the north; Herøy Municipality lies to the west; and Vega Municipality lies to the south. The highest point in the municipality is the 1,072-metre (3,517 ft) tall mountain Botnkrona, one of the De syv søstre mountains on the island of Alsta.[1]

Climate
