==History== King [[Haakon I of Norway]] (Haakon the Good) maintained his residence at Fitjar. The [[Battle of Fitjar]] (''Slaget ved Fitjar pΓ₯ Stord'') took place in Fitjar on the island of [[Stord (island)|Stord]] in the year 961 between the forces of King Haakon I and the sons of his half-brother, [[Eric Bloodaxe]]. Traditionally, important shipping routes have passed through the area, and the municipality contains several trading posts dating as far back as 1648. Fitjar was separated from [[Stord]] in 1863. There have been discussions about a possible reunion of the two municipalities, but no decision has been made.
