Brattvær

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brattvær is a former municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway, located in the western part of the island Smøla.

It was created on 1 January 1915 when Edøy municipality was split in three to form the new municipalities Edøy, Brattvær and Hopen. At that time Brattvær had a population of 973.

On 1 January 1960 the 1915 partition was reversed, reuniting the municipalities Brattvær, Edøy og Hopen under the new name Smøla. Before the merger Brattvær had a population of 1.361.
