History


The municipality of Hol was established on 1 July 1919 when the eastern part of Buksnes municipality was split off to become the new municipality. Initially, Hol had a population of 2,272. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1963, the municipality of Hol (population: 3,154) was merged with the neighboring municipalities of Borge (population: 4,056), Buksnes (population: 4,416), and Valberg (population: 662) to create the new Vestvågøy Municipality.[2]


Government


All municipalities in Norway, including Hol, are responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment and other social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. The municipality is governed by a municipal council of elected representatives, which in turn elects a mayor.[3]
