Fyllingsdalen is a borough of the city of Bergen, Norway, located south-west of the city centre in the valley to the west of Løvstakken. The early name of the valley, "Fynö dalen", was the origin of the name of the farm which gave Fyllingsdalen its name, Fyllingen. In 1955, Bergen municipality, lacking land to build on, annexed the valley, which at the time had a population of approximately 1,600.cite journal | author=Gunnar Hagen Hartvedt| title=Fyllingsdalen| journal=Bergen Byleksikon| year=1994| pages=195] Prior to that time, Fyllingsdalen had belonged to the municipality of Fana, which was later merged into Bergen as well. The Puddefjord Bridge, opened in 1956, and the Løvstakken tunnel, opened in 1968, contributed greatly to the growth of the borough.

The neighbourhoods of Fyllingsdalen mainly consist of fairly large apartment buildings. The main service centre is the shopping centre Oasen, opened in 1971cite journal | author=Gunnar Hagen Hartvedt| title=Oasen| journal=Bergen Byleksikon| year=1994| pages=359] Fyllingsdalen was constructed as a modern commuter town, but saw some commercial activity develop in the late 20th century.

Culture and education

Fyllingsdalen contains three churches, several elementary schools and lower secondary schools, one upper secondary school and one nursing home, as well as police stations, surgeries, pharmacies and post offices.
