Beitstad (Urban East Norwegian: [ˈbæ̂ɪtstɑ]) is a former municipality in what was Nord-Trøndelag county, Norway. The 201-square-kilometre (78 sq mi) municipality existed from 1838 until its dissolution in 1964. The area is now part of Steinkjer Municipality in Trøndelag county. Beitstad was originally quite large, but by 1964, it included the areas east of the Beitstadsundet and Hjellbotn bay and north of the inner-most parts of the Trondheimsfjorden. The administrative centre was the village of Beitstad where Beitstad Church is located.[6]

Prior to its dissolution in 1963, the 201-square-kilometre (78 sq mi) municipality was the 370th largest by area out of the 689 municipalities in Norway. Beitstad Municipality was the 353rd most populous municipality in Norway with a population of about 2,601. The municipality's population density was 13 inhabitants per square kilometre (34/sq mi) and its population had decreased by 1.7% over the previous 10-year period.[7][8]

General information

View of Beitstad (c. 1955)

The parish of Bedstaden was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). In 1846, the neighboring Nummedalseidet Municipality to the north was merged with Bedstaden. The spelling was later changed to Beitstad. On 1 January 1904, the northern district of Nummedalseidet (population: 1,368) was separated from Beitstad to create the new Namdalseid Municipality (this was the same area that joined Beitstad Municipality in 1846). The split left Beitstad Municipality with 2,946 inhabitants. On 1 July 1913 another split took place. All of Beitstad Municipality located west of the Beitstadsundet strait and the Hjellbotn bay (population: 993) was separated and became the new Malm Municipality, leaving Beitstad Municipality with a population of 1,934.[9]

During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, a large merger took place with the following municipalities being merged to form a new, larger Steinkjer Municipality.[9]

Name

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the local Beitstadfjorden (Old Norse: Beitisstǫð). The first element is beitir which was likely the old name for the local Beitstadfjorden. The meaning of this name is uncertain, but it may come from the beita which means "to graze" or "to bite". The last element is stǫð which means "landing place" or "harbour".[6][10] Historically, the name of the municipality was spelled Bedstaden or Beitstaden. On 3 November 1917, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Beitstad, removing the definite form ending -en.[11]

Churches

The Church of Norway had one parish (sokn) within Beitstad Municipality. At the time of the municipal dissolution, it was part of the Beitstad prestegjeld and the Nord-Innherad prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros.[8]

Geography

The highest point in the municipality was the 530-metre (1,740 ft) tall mountain Jønnemsklumpen on the border with Kvam Municipality.[1] The municipality was located at the innermost part of the Beitstadfjorden. Malm Municipality was located to the west, Namdalseid Municipality was to the north, Kvam Municipality and Egge Municipality were to the east, and the fjord was to the south.

Government

While it existed, Beitstad Municipality was 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 was governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor was indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.[12] The municipality was under the jurisdiction of the Frostating Court of Appeal.
