History

Hadsel was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). The northern district of Hadsel was separated in 1841 to form the new Sortland Municipality. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1963, the Indre Eidsfjord district of Hadsel (population: 1,360) was transferred to Sortland municipality.[5]

Name

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Hadsel farm (Шаблон:Lang-non) since the first Hadsel Church was built there. The first element is the genitive case of Шаблон:Wikt-lang which means "high and steep cliff" or "head". The last element is Шаблон:Wikt-lang which means "sail". (A cliff near the farm has been compared in form to a sail.)[6]

Coat of arms

The coat of arms was granted on 11 March 1976. The official blazon is "Azure, four annulets Or, two and two" (Шаблон:Lang-no). This means the arms have a blue field (background) and the charge is four rings (two over two). The charge has a tincture of Or which means it is commonly colored yellow, but if it is made out of metal, then gold is used. The blue color in the field symbolizes the importance of sea for this island municipality. The four rings represent the four main islands of that make up Hadsel: Hadseløya, Austvågøya, Hinnøya, and Langøya. The arms were designed by Øystein Bottolfsen.[7][8][9]
