'''Finnøy''' is a [[List of former municipalities of Norway|former municipality]] in [[Rogaland]] county, [[Norway]]. The {{convert|104|km2}} island municipality existed from 1838 until its dissolution in 2020 when it was merged into [[Stavanger Municipality]]. It was located in the [[Traditional districts of Norway|traditional district]] of [[Ryfylke]]. The [[administrative centre]] of the municipality was the village of [[Judaberg]].

The municipality consisted of a number of islands on the south side of the [[Boknafjorden]], about {{convert|24|km}} northeast of the city of [[Stavanger]]. The [[Finnøy Tunnel]] connects the two islands of [[Finnøy (island)|Finnøy]] and [[Talgje]] to the mainland. The rest of the islands are accessible only by boat.

Finnøy is an agricultural community dominated by [[dairy]], [[meat]], [[poultry]], and [[fish farming]] products, with strong [[horticultural]] traditions, mainly [[greenhouse]] production of [[tomato]]es, as well as some [[tourism]].

Prior to its dissolution in 2020, the {{convert|104|km2|adj=on}} municipality is the 375th largest by area out of the 422 municipalities in Norway.  Finnøy was the 256th most populous municipality in Norway with a population of 3,235.  The municipality's [[population density]] was {{convert|31.4|PD/km2}} and its population has increased by 21.1% over the last decade.<ref name="ssb pop">{{Cite web |last=Statistisk sentralbyrå |author-link=Statistics Norway |year=2017 |title=Table: 06913: Population 1 January and population changes during the calendar year (M) |url=https://www.ssb.no/statistikkbanken/selectvarval/Define.asp?subjectcode=&ProductId=&MainTable=Folkemengd1951&nvl=&PLanguage=1&nyTmpVar=true&CMSSubjectArea=befolkning&KortNavnWeb=folkendrhist&StatVariant=&checked=true |access-date=2017-11-04 |language=no}}</ref>

The [[prestegjeld|parish]] of ''Finnø'' was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see [[formannskapsdistrikt]] law). It originally encompassed the islands of [[Finnøy (island)|Finnøy]], [[Talgje]], and [[Fogn]] as well as the small surrounding islets and the southeasternmost corner of the island of [[Rennesøy (island)|Rennesøy]]. On 1 January 1918, the part of Finnøy located on the island of [[Rennesøy (island)|Rennesøy]] (population: 72) was transferred from Finnøy to the neighboring municipality of [[Rennesøy]].<ref name="Dag">{{Cite book |last=Jukvam |first=Dag |year=1999 |title=Historisk oversikt over endringer i kommune- og fylkesinndelingen |url=http://www.ssb.no/emner/00/90/rapp_9913/rapp_9913.pdf |publisher=[[Statistics Norway|Statistisk sentralbyrå]] |language=no |isbn=9788253746845}}</ref>

During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the [[Schei Committee]]. On 1 January 1965, the municipality of Finnøy was enlarged when it was merged with the entire municipality of [[Sjernarøy]] (population: 819), the northeastern part of [[Ombo]] island (population: 89) from the municipality of [[Jelsa, Norway|Jelsa]], and the Fisterøyene islands (population: 246) from the municipality of [[Fister (municipality)|Fister]].<ref name="Dag" />

On 1 January 2020, the municipalities of Finnøy, [[Rennesøy]], and [[Stavanger]] were merged into one, large municipality called Stavanger.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Om nye Stavanger |url=http://nye.stavanger.kommune.no/om-nye-stavanger/ |access-date=2017-11-04 |language=no |archive-date=7 November 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171107011243/http://nye.stavanger.kommune.no/om-nye-stavanger/ |url-status=dead }}</ref>

===Name===
The municipality (originally the [[prestegjeld|parish]]) is named after the island of [[Finnøy (island)|Finnøy]] ({{langx|non|Finney}}) since the historic [[Hesby Church]] was built there. The meaning of the first element is uncertain. It is possibly from the word ''finna'' which is the local name for ''[[Nardus stricta]]''. Another possibility is that it comes from the old male name {{lang|non|finni}}. The last element is {{wikt-lang|non|ey}} which means "[[island]]".<ref>{{Cite book |last=Rygh |first=Oluf |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=u4pBAAAAIAAJ |title=Norske gaardnavne: Stavanger amt |date=1915 |publisher=W. C. Fabritius & sønners bogtrikkeri |edition=10 |location=Kristiania, Norge |pages=245–246 |language=no |authorlink=Oluf Rygh}}</ref> Historically, the name of the municipality was spelled ''Finnø''. On 3 November 1917, a [[royal decree|royal resolution]] changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to ''Finnøy''. The letter ''y'' was added to the end of the word to "Norwegianize" the name ({{lang|da|ø}} is the Danish word for "island" and {{lang|no|øy}} is the Norwegian word).<ref>{{Cite journal |year=1917 |title=Norsk Lovtidende. 2den Afdeling. 1917.

===Coat of arms===
The [[coat of arms]] was granted on 23 September 1983 and it was in use until 1 January 2020 when the municipality was dissolved. The official [[blazon]] is ''"[[Azure (heraldry)|Azure]], a winged arrowhead [[argent]] [[in bend]]"'' ({{langx|no|På blå grunn ei vengja sølv pil på skrå oppover}}). This means the arms have a blue [[field (heraldry)|field]] (background) and the [[charge (heraldry)|charge]] is a winged [[arrowhead]]. The charge has a [[tincture (heraldry)|tincture]] of [[argent]] which means it is commonly colored white, but if it is made out of metal, then silver is used. The arms were derived from the arms of the Hestbø family (which included [[Ogmund Finnsson]]), one of the mightiest families in the area in the 14th century. They had their stronghold on their Hesby estate on the island of [[Finnøy (island)|Finnøy]] in the municipality of Finnøy. The arms were designed by Harald Hallstensen. The municipal flag has the same design as the coat of arms.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Civic heraldry of Norway - Norske Kommunevåpen |url=https://www.heraldry-wiki.com/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Finnøy |access-date=2023-07-04 |publisher=Heraldry of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Finnøy, Rogaland (Norway) |url=https://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/no-11-41.html |access-date=2023-07-04 |website=Flags of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=1983-12-05 |title=Godkjenning av våpen og flagg |url=https://lovdata.no/dokument/LFO/forskrift/1983-09-23-1520 |access-date=2023-07-04 |website=Lovdata.no |publisher=Norges kommunal- og arbeidsdepartementet |language=no}}</ref> 

===Churches===

==History==
[[File:Finnøy av Fearnley.jpg|thumb|right|Drawing of the Finnøy prestegård]]
[[File:Finnøy fields.jpg|thumb|right|Fields on Finnøy]]
Finnøy was at the top of its power in the middle of the fourteenth century when the King's representative Ogmund Finnsson had his seat at Hesby on the west side of the island of Finnøy. The medieval, stone [[Hesby Church]], dating back to at least the thirteenth century, still stands at Hesby.

It is often claimed that the Norwegian mathematician [[Niels Henrik Abel]] (1802–1829) was born on Finnøy, since his father Søren Georg acted as [[Rector (ecclesiastical)|rector]] there. Recent studies indicates, however, that he was born in [[Nedstrand]], a nearby [[parish]]. However, he was raised on Finnøy.

==Geography==
The island municipality of Finnøy was located on the south side of the [[Boknafjorden]]. The main islands of Finnøy included [[Finnøy (island)|Finnøy]], [[Talgje]], [[Fogn]], [[Halsnøya (Rogaland)|Halsnøya]], [[Sjernarøyane]], and the north and west parts of the island of [[Ombo]]. The islands of Talgje and Finnøy are connected to the mainland by the undersea [[Finnøy Tunnel]]. The rest of the islands are only accessible by boats.

==Government==
While it existed, this municipality was responsible for [[primary education]] (through 10th grade), outpatient [[Health care|health services]], [[old age|senior citizen]] services, [[unemployment]], [[Social work|social services]], [[zoning]], [[economic development]], and municipal [[road]]s. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a [[Municipal council (Norway)|municipal council]] of [[Direct election|directly elected]] representatives. The [[mayor]] was [[Indirect election|indirectly elected]] by a vote of the municipal council.<ref name="ks">{{Cite encyclopedia |title=kommunestyre |encyclopedia=[[Store norske leksikon]] |publisher=[[Kunnskapsforlaget]] |url=https://snl.no/kommunestyre |access-date=2023-01-01 |date=2022-09-20 |editor-last=Hansen |editor-first=Tore |language=no |editor2-last=Vabo |editor2-first=Signy Irene}}</ref> The municipality was under the jurisdiction of the [[Ryfylke District Court]] and the [[Gulating Court of Appeal]].

===Municipal council===
The [[Municipal council (Norway)|municipal council]] ({{lang|no|Kommunestyre}}) of Finnøy was made up of 21 representatives that were elected to four year terms. The [[Political party|party]] breakdown for the councils was as follows:
