General information
The parish of Nordre Odalen was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). The borders of the municipality have not changed since that time.[5]
Name
The municipality is named after the valley in which it is located. The first element in the name is Nord- which means "north". The last element is the old district name Odalen (Old Norse: Ódalr). The first part of this is ó which is a sideform of the word á which means "river" (here it's referring to the Glåma river). The last part of this is dalr which means "valley" or "dale". The prefix "Nord-" was added when the old Odalen parish was divided in 1819 into Søndre Odalen in the south and Nordre Odalen in the north. Later, spelling reforms changed the names to Nord-Odal and Sør-Odal.[6]
Coat of arms
The coat of arms was granted on 10 January 1992. The arms show two black grapple tools on a gold background. They represent the historic traditions of forestry and logging in the municipality.[7]
Churches
The Church of Norway has two parishes (sokn) within the municipality of Nord-Odal. It is part of the Solør, Vinger og Odal prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Hamar.
| Parish (sokn) | Church name | Location of the church | Year built |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mo | Mo Church | Mo | 1864 |
| Sand | Sand Church | Sand | 1891 |
| Trøftskogen Chapel | Trautskogen | 1931 |
Government
All municipalities in Norway, including Nord-Odal, 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.[8] The municipality falls under the Romerike og Glåmdal District Court and the Eidsivating Court of Appeal.
