Landvik

Other villages in Landvik include Molland, Reddal, Skiftenes, Tjore, and Østerhus.

Today, the name Landvik is still used to designate the westernmost part of the municipality of Grimstad, near the Prestegårdskogen housing development.

In 1876, the council began meeting at the Vikmarken school, just south of Roresanden.

On 1 January 1883, the uninhabited Tolleholmen part of neighboring Birkenes municipality was transferred to Landvik.

[8] The new name came from the neighboring Landvig farm since the historic Landvik Church was located there.

[9] The municipal council (Kommunestyre) of Landvik was made up of representatives that were elected to four year terms.
