Haus, Norway

Haus is a village and a former municipality in Hordaland county, Norway.

The village is located at the south-western costline of the Osterøy island, at the Sørfjorden fiord.

The parish of Haus was established as a municipality January 1, 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt), including the annex Bruvik. On January 1, 1870 Bruvik with 2,062 inhabitants was separated from Haus to form a municipality of its own. The split left Haus with a population of 4,229. On January 1, 1964 the part of Haus situated at Osterøy was transferred to the new municipality of Osterøy, whereas the remaining part on the mainland formed the municipality of Arna.
