Mosterhamn

Mosterhamn or simply Moster is a village in Bømlo municipality in Vestland county, Norway.

The village is located on the small island of Moster in the southeastern part of the municipality of Bømlo.

[1] The village is notable since the Old Moster Church is here and that is the site of the Mostratinget, a thing in the year 998 when Olav Tryggvason is said to have brought Christianity to Norway and made it the national Church of Norway.

[3] Prior to the opening of the Triangle Link bridge-tunnel network in 2001, Mosterhamn was one port of the Mosterhamn–Valevåg Ferry which crossed the Bømlafjorden.
