History
The prestegjeld of Slidre was established as a civil municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). The municipality did not exist very long. On 1 January 1849, the municipality was divided into Vestre Slidre Municipality (population: 3,130) and Øystre Slidre Municipality (population: 2,406).[5]
Name
The municipality (and the parish) were named after the old Slidre farm (Old Norse: Slíðrar or Slíðrir) since this was the location of the first Slidre Church that was built during the 12th century. The meaning of the name is not definitively known. It could be derived from the word slir which means the narrow depression through which a river runs.[6][4]
