Bruvik (historically: Kyrkjebruvik) is a village in Osterøy municipality in Vestland county, Norway.
The village is located on the southern shore of the island of Osterøy, along the Sørfjorden.
Bruvik was a central hub for the region since it sat along the fjord and boat travel was the main mode of transportation, but as time progressed, railroads and highways were built on the opposite side of the fjord, and that side grew into larger urban areas while Bruvik has now become less important since it has only one road leading to it from the rest of Norway.
[3] The small island of Olsnesøyna lies about 1.7 kilometres (1.1 mi) southeast of Bruvik in the middle of the fjord.
It was the site of school for disobedient boys and later used by the local county jail.
