'''Mosvik''' is a [[List of former municipalities of Norway|former municipality]] in the old [[Nord-Trøndelag]] [[Counties of Norway|county]] in [[Norway]]. The municipality was part of the [[Innherred]] [[Districts of Norway|region]]. The {{convert|219.37|km2|adj=on}} municipality existed from 1901 until its dissolution in 2012. The old municipality encompassed the southern part of what is now [[Inderøy Municipality]] in [[Trøndelag]] county. The municipality was located along the western shore of the [[Trondheimsfjorden]] and on the southwestern end of the [[Beitstadfjorden]]. The [[administrative centre]] of the municipality was the [[Mosvik (village)|village of Mosvik]] where [[Mosvik Church]] is located. Other villages located near the village of Mosvik include [[Trongsundet]], [[Framverran]], [[Venneshamn]], and [[Kjerringvik]].<ref name="snl">{{Cite encyclopedia |title=Mosvik |encyclopedia=[[Store norske leksikon]] |publisher=[[Kunnskapsforlaget]] |url=https://snl.no/Mosvik |access-date=2018-04-11 |date=2017-10-19 |editor-last=Olsen Haugen |editor-first=Morten |language=no}}</ref>

Prior to its dissolution in 2012, the {{convert|219|km2|adj=on}} municipality was the 320th largest by area out of the 430 municipalities in Norway. Mosvik Municipality was the th most populous municipality in Norway with a population of about 811. The municipality's [[population density]] was {{convert|3.7|PD/km2}} and its population had decreased by 12.9% over the previous 10-year period.<ref name="ssb pop">{{Cite web |last=Statistisk sentralbyrå |author-link=Statistics Norway |title=Table: 06913: Population 1 January and population changes during the calendar year (M) |url=https://www.ssb.no/en/statbank/table/06913/ |language=Norwegian}}</ref><ref name="ssb area">{{Cite web |last=Statistisk sentralbyrå |author-link=Statistics Norway |title=09280: Area of land and fresh water (km²) (M) |url=https://www.ssb.no/en/statbank/table/09280/ |language=Norwegian}}</ref>

Until 1991, the connection from Mosvik Municipality to the rest of the [[Innherred]] region was only available by a [[RORO|car ferry]], at first via [[Ytterøya]] to [[Levanger (town)|Levanger]], but later directly to [[Inderøy Municipality]] on the [[Vangshylla–Kjerringvik Ferry]] route. In 1991, the [[Skarnsund Bridge]] on [[Norwegian County Road 755]] was completed, eliminating the need for a ferry across the [[Skarnsundet]] strait.<ref name="snl" /> The Skarnsund bridge was opened by [[Harald V of Norway|King Harald V]] on 19 December 1991, after he had taken the last ferry across the fjord. A monument, the King's Stone, bearing the signature of the king, is located at the resting place on the Mosvik side.

Mosvik features two of [[List of tallest structures in Norway|Norway's 23 tallest structures]]: the [[Skavlen transmitter]] [[television]] and [[radio]] transmitter at {{convert|165|m}} and the [[Skarnsund Bridge]] at {{convert|152|m}}.

The municipality of Mosvik was established on 1 January 1901 when the old [[Mosvik og Verran Municipality]] was divided into two new municipalities: Mosvik Municipality (population: 969) in the southeast and [[Verran Municipality]] (population: 1,456) in the north and west.<ref name="Dag">{{Cite web |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 changes across Norway due to the work of the [[Schei Committee]]. On 1 January 1968, the [[Framverran]] area on the south side of the [[Verrasundet]] strait (population: 395) was transferred from [[Verran Municipality]] to Mosvik Municipality.<ref name="Dag" />

On 1 January 2012, Mosvik Municipality ceased to exist when it was merged into the neighboring [[Inderøy Municipality]]. Prior to the merger, Mosvik Municipality had 811 residents.<ref name="snl" />

===Name===
The municipality was named Mosvik ({{langx|non|Masarvík}}) since the first [[Mosvik Church]] was built there. The first element is the [[genitive case]] of the river name {{lang|non|Mǫs}} (now called the Mossa river). The meaning of the river name is unknown. The last element is {{wikt-lang|non|vík}} which means "[[inlet]]" or "[[cove]]".<ref>{{Cite book |last=Rygh |first=Oluf |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_kFFxvxaufcC |title=Norske gaardnavne: Nordre Trondhjems amt |date=1903 |publisher=W. C. Fabritius & sønners bogtrikkeri |edition=15 |location=Kristiania, Norge |page=162 |language=no |authorlink=Oluf Rygh}}</ref> Historically, the name of the municipality was spelled ''Mosviken''. On 3 November 1917, a [[royal decree|royal resolution]] changed the spelling of the name of the municipality to ''Mosvik'', removing the [[Definite article|definite form]] ending ''-en''.<ref>{{Cite journal |year=1917 |title=Norsk Lovtidende. 2den Afdeling. 1917.

===Coat of arms===
The [[coat of arms]] was granted on 13 July 1984 and it was in use until 1 January 2012 when it became part of [[Inderøy Municipality]]. The official [[blazon]] is ''"[[Argent]], two [[Pile (heraldry)|piles]] throughout reversed [[Vert (heraldry)|vert]]"'' ({{langx|no|I sølv to grønne spisser}}). This means the arms have a [[field (heraldry)|field]] (background) 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 [[charge (heraldry)|charge]] is a two green triangles pointing upwards. The design was chosen to symbolize the [[forest]]s and trees in the municipality as well as to look like the letter [[M]], the initial of the municipality. The arms were designed by Einar H. Skjervold. 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=Mosvik |access-date=2023-02-20 |publisher=Heraldry of the World}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=1984-09-11 |title=Godkjenning av våpen og flagg |url=https://lovdata.no/dokument/LF/forskrift/1984-07-13-1429 |access-date=2023-02-20 |website=Lovdata.no |publisher=Norges kommunal- og arbeidsdepartementet |language=no}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Mosvik kommune, våpen |url=https://foto.digitalarkivet.no/fotoweb/archives/5003-Kommunev%C3%A5pen/Kart%20og%20tegninger%20og%20segl/he10081205030967.tif.info#c=%2Ffotoweb%2Farchives%2F5003-Kommunev%25C3%25A5pen%2F%3Fq%3Dmosvik |access-date=2023-02-20 |website=Digitalarkivet |publisher=Arkivverket |language=no}}</ref>
