Sæbø is a former municipality in the old Hordaland county, Norway. The 27-square-kilometre (10 sq mi) municipality existed from 1924 until its dissolution in 1964. It was located in what is now Alver Municipality in Vestland county. It occupied the southern part of the island of Radøy, some small areas on the Lindås peninsula, and some small areas on the island of Holsnøy. The administrative centre of the municipality was the village of Sæbø, where Sæbø Church is located.[3]

History

The municipality of Sæbø was created on 1 July 1924 when the old municipality of Manger was split into three municipalities: Hordabø, Manger, and Sæbø. Initially, Sæbø had a population of 1,125.[4]

During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the municipality was dissolved and a merged with the following places to form the new Radøy Municipality.[4]

Name

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Sæbø farm (Old Norse: Sæbœr) since the first Sæbø Church was built there. The first element comes from the word sær which means "sea" or "ocean". The last element is bœr which means "farm" or "farmstead". Thus, the name means "farm by the sea".[5]

Government

During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of directly elected representatives. The mayor was indirectly elected by a vote of the municipal council.[6]
