The administrative centre of the municipality was the village of Mosvik where Mosvik Church is located. Other villages located near the village of Mosvik include Trongsundet, Framverran, Venneshamn, and Kjerringvik.[3]

Until 1991, the connection from Mosvik municipality to the rest of the Innherred region was only available by a car ferry, at first via Ytterøya to Levanger, but later directly to Inderøy on the Vangshylla–Kjerringvik Ferry route. In 1991, the Skarnsund Bridge on Norwegian County Road 755 was completed, eliminating the need for a ferry.[3]

Mosvik features two of Norway's 23 tallest structures: the Skavlen transmitter television and radio transmitter at 165 metres (541 ft) and the Skarnsund Bridge at 152 metres (499 ft).

The Skarnsund bridge was opened by King Harald V on 19 December 1991, after he had taken the last ferry across the fjord. A monument, the King's Stone, bearing the signature of the king, is located at the resting place on the Mosvik side.

History

The municipality of Mosvik was established on 1 January 1901 when the old municipality of Mosvik og Verran was divided into two new municipalities: Mosvik (population: 969) in the southeast and Verran (population: 1,456) in the north and west.

During the 1960s, there were many municipal changes across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1968, the Framverran area on the south side of the Verrasundet strait (population: 395) was transferred from Verran municipality to Mosvik municipality.[4] On 1 January 2012, the municipality of Mosvik ceased to exist when it was merged into the neighboring municipality of Inderøy. Prior to the merger, Mosvik had 811 residents.[3]

Name

The Old Norse form of the name was Masarvík. The first element is the genitive case of the river name Mǫs (now Mossa) and the last element (Old Norse: Vík) is identical with the word vik which means "inlet" or "cove". The name has historically been spelled Mosviken.[5]

Coat of arms

The coat of arms for Mosvik was from modern times; they were granted on 13 July 1984. The arms show the letter M, the initial of the municipality. At the same time, the two green triangles symbolize the many forests in the municipality.[6]

Churches

The Church of Norway had one parish (sokn) within the municipality of Mosvik. It was part of the Nord-Innherad prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros.
