General information
editFrosta was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). It is one of very few municipalities in Norway with unchanged borders since that date.[6] In 2018, the municipality, which was part of the old Nord-Trøndelag county became part of the new Trøndelag county.
Name
editThe municipality (originally the parish) is named Frosta (Old Norse: Frosta). The meaning of the name is unknown.[7] Historically, the name of the municipality was spelled Frosten. On 31 December 1908, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Frosta.[8]
Coat of arms
editThe coat of arms was granted on 26 June 1987. The official blazon is "Vert, a sceptre fleury Or" (Norwegian: I grønt et gull liljesepter). This means the arms have a green field (background) and the charge is a sceptre or mace with a Fleur-de-lis design at the top. 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 coat of arms was inspired by the old seal of the medieval Frostating assembly, where King Magnus VI the law-mender is sitting with a lily sceptre in his hand. Frosta was one of the historic places of justice, so this was chosen to commemorate that fact. The arms were designed by Einar H. Skjervold.[9][10][11]
Churches
editThe Church of Norway has one parish (sokn) within the municipality of Frosta. It is part of the Sør-Innherad prosti (deanery) in the Diocese of Nidaros.
| Parish (sokn) | Church Name | Location of the Church | Year Built |
|---|---|---|---|
| Frosta | Frosta Church | Frosta | 1866 |
| Logtun Church | Logtun | 16th century |
History
edit
Several rock engraving sites can be found in the parish, together with burial mounds from Viking times. Archaeologists have for the first time found the remnants of a Viking harbour (Vikinghavna på Fånestangen) in Norway at Frosta. A number of logs sticking up along the shoreline at Frosta have been dated back to around year 1000.
Norway's oldest court, Frostating, had its seat here at Tinghaugen, close to the medieval church at Logtun. On the island of Tautra can be found the remains of Tautra Abbey, a Trappist (Reformed Cistercian) convent, established in 1207.
Economy
editAgriculture makes up the largest business in Frosta, which is sometimes called "Trondheim's kitchen garden" due to the substantial production of vegetables, strawberries, and flowers.
Geography
edit
Frosta is on a peninsula in the Trondheimsfjord, about 20 km (12 mi) northeast of Trondheim. By road the distance is about 75 km (47 mi) Frosta is sometimes nicknamed "Trondheim's kitchen garden" due to many farms with production of vegetables, as well as a good microclimate.
