Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:About Шаблон:Infobox kommune
Dypvåg is a former municipality in the old Aust-Agder county, Norway. The Шаблон:Convert municipality existed from 1838 until its dissolution in 1960 when it was merged into the present-day municipality of Tvedestrand which is in Agder county. The small municipality included the coastal area about Шаблон:Convert east of the town of Tvedestrand and several islands located just offshore. The administrative centre was the village of Dypvåg where the Dypvåg Church is located.[1]
History
The parish of Dybvaag (later spelled "Dypvåg") was established as a civil municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). On 1 January 1881, a part of the municipality of Holt (population: 52) was transferred to Dypvåg. Then later, on 1 January 1887, an uninhabited part of neighboring Søndeled municipality was transferred to Dypvåg. On 1 January 1902, the western half of Dypvåg (population: 1,892) was separated from the rest of Dypvåg (population: 3,235) to form the new municipality of Flosta.[2]
During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1960, the municipality of Dypvåg (population: 1,805) was merged with the neighboring municipality of Holt and the town of Tvedestrand to form a new, enlarged municipality of Tvedestrand which had a population of 6,432.[2]
Name
The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Dybvaag farm (Шаблон:Lang-non or Шаблон:Lang) since the first Dypvåg Church was built there. The first element comes from the word Шаблон:Wikt-lang which means "deep". The last element is Шаблон:Wikt-lang which means "inlet" or "bay".[3]
Historically, the name of the municipality was spelled Dybvaag. On 3 November 1917, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Dyvaag.[4] On 21 December 1917, a royal resolution enacted the 1917 Norwegian language reforms. Prior to this change, the name was spelled Dyvaag with the digraph "aa", and after this reform, the name was spelled Dyvåg, using the letter å instead.[5][6] On 22 January 1932, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Dypvåg.[7]
Government
While it existed, this municipality was responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment, social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor was indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.[8]
