Kolvereid

Kolvereid is the centre in Nærøy municipality, Norway. A regional centre in terms of geography and infrastructure, Kolvereid currently witnesses growth, and Nærøy has decided to declare town status. With a population approaching 2,000, Kolvereid is the smallest town in Norway.

Kolvereid was established as a municipality January 1, 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt). Two other municipalities were later separated from it: Leka (1860) and Foldereid (1886). The rest of Kolvereid was merged with Nærøy January 1, 1964.
