Bud is a former municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The municipality existed from 1838 until its dissolution in 1964 when it was merged into Fræna Municipality (now part of the present-day Hustadvika Municipality). The 35-square-kilometre (14 sq mi) municipality was centered around the village of Bud which was the administrative centre of the municipality. Bud Church was the main church for the municipality.[3]
History
On 1 January 1838, the prestegjeld (parish) of Bud was established as a municipality (see formannskapsdistrikt law). On 1 January 1878, one area of Bud (population: 15) was transferred to the neighboring Kvernes Municipality. Then on 1 January 1891, the Bollien farm area (population: 15) was also transferred to Kvernes Municipality. On 1 July 1918, Bud Municipality was divided in two: the eastern part remained as Bud (population: 1,397) and the western part became the new Hustad Municipality (population: 2,062).
During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, there was a merger involving Bud Municipality (population: 1,610) in the west, Hustad Municipality (population: 2,196) in the north, and Fræna Municipality (population: 3,430) in the south, forming a new, larger Fræna Municipality.[4]
