The parish of Qvindherred was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt law). On 1 January 1907, a small area northwest of the villages of Ølve and Husa (population: 67) was transferred from neighboring Tysnes municipality to Kvinnherad. During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1965, the following areas were merged into one large municipality of Kvinnherad:<ref name="Dag">Template:Cite book</ref>

All of Skånevik municipality located north of the Skånevikfjorden-Åkrafjorden and west of the Åkra area (population: 1,189)
All of Fjelberg municipality (population: 2,308)
All of the old Kvinnherad municipality (population: 5,831)
All of Varaldsøy municipality, except for the Mundheim area, (population: 511)

On 1 January 2013, the southwestern part of the Folgefonna peninsula (south of Kysnesstranda) was transferred from Kvinnherad to the neighboring Jondal municipality. This removed forty residents and Template:Convert of land area from the municipality.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

NameEdit

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old name for the area (Template:Langx). The first element may be derived from the word {{#invoke:Lang|lang}} which means "double", likely referring to the two rivers running through Rosendal, the administrative centre of the municipality. The last element is Template:Wikt-lang which means "district" or "countryside".<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> The municipal name has been spelled several ways throughout history. Before 1889, the name was written Quindherred, then in 1889 the spelling was "modernized" to Kvinnherred. At that time, all municipalities in Norway were titled Template:Wikt-lang (which was used similarly to the word "municipality"), so it was formally named Kvinnherred herred, which looked a little repetitive.<ref name="NLF">Template:Cite book</ref> On 3 November 1917, a royal resolution changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to Kvinnherad.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref>

Coat of armsEdit

The coat of arms was granted on 18 June 1982. The official blazon is "Argent, a pall wavy azure" (Template:Langx). This means the arms have a field (background) has a tincture of argent which means it is commonly colored white, but if it is made out of metal, then silver is used. The ordinary is a pall with wavy edges. The design of the arms show the confluence of two blue rivers into one on a white or silver background. The rivers symbolize the many streams and rivers in the municipality, especially the Hattebergselvi and the Melselvi, that come together just before they run into the sea at Rosendal. The arms were designed by Truls Nygaard, after a proposal by Magnus Hardeland. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

GeographyEdit

The municipality is located along the large Hardangerfjorden, mostly on the southeast side of the fjord on the Folgefonna peninsula, but also a small part on the other side. It includes several notable islands in the fjord including Varaldsøy, Fjelbergøya, Borgundøya, and Halsnøya.<ref name="snl" />

The large Folgefonna National Park, which surrounds the Folgefonna glacier, is partially located in Kvinnherad. The northern part of the municipality is often referred to as Mauranger. It is the area surrounding the Maurangsfjorden. The notable Bondhusbreen glacier is located just south of that fjord, near the village of Sunndal. The Jondal Tunnel and Folgefonna Tunnel both connect Mauranger with neighboring Odda and Jondal by cutting through the large mountains surrounding Mauranger.<ref name="snl" />

The municipality has many large lakes including Blådalsvatnet, Juklavatnet, and Onarheimsvatnet. Many of these lakes are utilized for hydroelectric power generation.
