Bindal is a municipality in the Helgeland region in the extreme southwest part of Nordland county, Norway. The administrative centre is the village of Terråk. Other villages include Bindalseidet, Holm, Vassås, Horsfjord and Åbygda.

The 1,266-square-kilometre (489 sq mi) municipality is the 81st largest by area out of the 357 municipalities in Norway. Bindal is the 306th most populous municipality in Norway with a population of 1,399. The municipality's population density is 1.2 inhabitants per square kilometre (3.1/sq mi) and its population has decreased by 10% over the previous 10-year period.[5][6]

History

[edit]
Hildringen in Bindal (1852).

The ancient district of Bindalen belonged to Namdalen. However, in 1658, when the county (län) of Trondheim was ceded to Sweden in the Treaty of Roskilde, the status of the border district was ambiguous, with residents paying some taxes to Helgeland, in Nordland, and some to Namdalen. The decision was then made to redraw the county boundary to run down the Bindalsfjorden and assigning the northern part, Nord-Bindalen, to Nordland county (which remained in the Kingdom of Denmark-Norway) and the larger part remained in Trondheim county and became Sør-Bindalen (and part of the Kingdom of Sweden).[7] The two remained separate after Trøndelag county was reunited with Norway in 1660.[8]

In 1815, a single Church of Norway prestegjeld called Bindalen was created, combining Nord-Bindalen and Sør-Bindalen into one church parish, despite belonging to different counties.[9][10] The 1838 formannskapsdistrikt law divided the country into civil municipalities which were supposed to correspond to the parishes of the Church of Norway. The parish of Bindalen (which straddled the county border) was created as Bindal Municipality, but the southern part was part of Nordre Trondheim county and the northern part of the municipality belonged to Nordland county, making for an unusual situation. In 1852, the county border was moved so that all of Bindal Municipality was located in Nordland county.[11]

On 1 January 1964, the area around the inner Bindalsfjorden and the village of Lande (population: 296) was transferred from Bindal Municipality to Brønnøy Municipality.[12]

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the Bindalen valley (Old Norse: Birnudalr). The first element is the genitive case of the river name Birna (now called the river Åbjøra). The river name is derived from the word birna which means "(female) bear". The last element is dalr which means "valley" or "dale".[13][14] Historically, the name of the municipality was spelled Bindalen. On 3 November 1917, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Bindal, removing the definite form ending -en.[15]

Coat of arms

[edit]

The coat of arms was granted on 9 February 1990. The official blazon is "Azure, six nails Or in annulo" (Norwegian: I blått seks gull nagler i rosett). This means the arms have a blue field (background) and the charge is a circular arrangement of six nails or rivets. The charge has a tincture of Or which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. The blue color in the field symbolizes the importance of the sea and boating and the circular arrangement of rivets was chosen to symbolize the importance of the boat building industry in Bindal. There are six rivets to represent 6 school districts, 6 originally inhabited islands, and 6 fjords areas in the municipality. The arms were designed by Arvid Sveen.[16][17][18][19]

Churches

[edit]

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

Geography

[edit]

Bindal borders four municipalities in Trøndelag county: Høylandet Municipality and Nærøysund Municipality in the south, Namsskogan Municipality in the southeast, and Leka Municipality in the west. Bindal also has borders Sømna Municipality, Brønnøy Municipality, and Grane Municipality in Nordland county. The Bindalsfjorden runs through the central part of the municipality.

From the coast, the municipality reaches into the mountains towards the lake Majavatnet in Grane. The highest point in the municipality is the 1,088.13-metre (3,570.0 ft) tall mountain Tjeldviktinden on the border with Brønnøy Municipality.[1] Another notable mountain is the 1,058-metre (3,471 ft) tall Heilhornet.[20] It also includes part of the lakes Eidvatnet and Fjellvatnet, which also partially lie in Brønnøy Municipality. Other lakes include Åbjørvatnet, Kalvvatnet, and Saglivatnet. The river Åbjøra runs through the eastern part of Bindal. Part of the island of Austra is in Bindal.

Government

[edit]

Bindal Municipality is responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, welfare and other social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads and utilities. The municipality is governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor is indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.[21] The municipality is under the jurisdiction of the Helgeland District Court and the Hålogaland Court of Appeal.

Man enedes, efter nogen Forhandling om at dele Distriktet. Nogle af dets Gaarde henlagdes til Helgeland og forbleve Norske, medens den største Del, som hørende til Namdalen, skulde lyde under den svenske Krone.
