Hølonda encompassed the southwestern part of what is now the municipality of MelhusinTrøndelag county. The municipality was west of the river Gaula.

History

[edit]
Map of Hølonda in 1960

The municipality of Høilandet (later changed to Hølonda) was established in 1865 when it was separated from the old municipality of Melhus. The new municipality had an initial population of 1,818. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the neighboring municipalities of Hølonda (population: 1,428), Horg (population: 2,560), Flå (population: 843), Melhus (population: 3,978), and the Langørgen farm (population: 11) in Buvik were all merged to form a new, larger municipality of Melhus.[4]

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally the parish) is named Hølonda (Old Norse: Høylandir). The first element is høy which means "high". The last element is the plural form of land which means "land" or "district". Historically, the name was written Høilandet, and then in 1889 the spelling was changed to Hølandet.[5] On 23 January 1931, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Hølonda.[6]
