Bryne (Norwegian pronunciation: [ˈbrỳːnə] ⓘ, locally [ˈbʁỳːnə]) is a town in Time municipality in Rogaland county, Norway.

[4] Bryne is located on the southern shores of the lake Frøylandsvatnet, about 30 minutes south of the city of Stavanger by train.

Many years later in 1949, the first excavator in Europe with complete hydraulic transmission of power, the Brøyt, was introduced by the two brothers Kristian and Ingebret Søyland.

Bryne has since grown rapidly to become Jæren's most densely populated rural area and a regional trade center.

On 1 January 2001, the municipality granted Bryne town status, the 49th largest settlement in Norway at the time.

The centre will encourage visitors to take a more active part in today's society, and inspire them to read and develop their own creativity.

The two founders of the band, vocalist Janove Ottesen and guitarist Geir Zahl are from Bryne.

Bryne is the childhood home of renowned striker Erling Haaland, where he grew up and learned to play football.
