Drevja is a former municipality in Nordland county, Norway . The municipality existed from 1927 until its dissolution in 1962. It was located in the Drevja valley, north of the Vefsnfjorden in the northern part of the present-day Vefsn Municipality . Drevja Church was the main church for the municipality.[2]
History [ edit ]
Drevja Church
The municipality of Drevja was established on 1 July 1927 when the large Vefsn Municipality was divided into three municipalities: Drevja (population: 964) in the north, Grane (population: 1,746) in the south, and Vefsn (population: 3,119) in the center. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee . On 1 January 1962, the municipality of Drevja (population: 1,001) was merged with the neighboring municipalities of Elsfjord (population: 920) and Vefsn (population: 5,358) and with the town of Mosjøen ) to form a new, larger Vefsn Municipality .[3]
The municipality was named after the river Drevja which flows from the lake Drevvatnet to the Vefsnfjorden . The name of the river is derived from the word drav [4]
Government [ edit ]
During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of elected representatives, which in turn elected a mayor .[5]
