'''Strinda''' is a [[List of former municipalities of Norway|former municipality]] in the old [[Sør-Trøndelag]] county, [[Norway]]. The {{convert|160.6|km2|adj=on}} municipality existed from 1838 until its dissolution in 1964. The municipality encompassed the eastern part of what is now [[Trondheim Municipality]] south and east of the main city center all the way southeast to the lake [[Jonsvatnet]]. Strinda Municipality originally included what is now [[Malvik Municipality]] as well. The western part of the municipality was heavily urbanized, while the areas further east and south were more suburban. The [[administrative centre]] was actually located in the neighboring [[city of Trondheim]], just across the [[Nidelva]] river on the ''Kjøpmansgata'' road.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Strinda formannskap |url=http://www.strindahistorielag.no/wiki/index.php?title=Strinda_formannskap |access-date=2018-03-17 |publisher=Strinda Historielag |language=no}}</ref><ref name="snl">{{Cite SNL|Strinda_-_tidligere_kommune|Strinda (tidligere kommune)|2025-02-09|Thorsnæs|Geir|2024-11-26|editor2-first=Knut A.|editor2-last=Rosvold}}</ref>
Prior to its dissolution in 1963, the {{convert|160.6|km2|adj=on}} municipality was the 424th largest by area out of the 689 municipalities in Norway. Strinda Municipality was the 6th most populous municipality in Norway with a population of about 42,531.

==General information== [[File:WLM2016 Strinda kirke fra nord 1.jpg|thumb|left|View of [[Strinda Church]]]] The municipality of Strinda was established on 1 January 1838 (see [[formannskapsdistrikt]] law). According to the 1835 census, Strinda had a population of 4,593.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Registreringssentral for historiske data |title=Hjemmehørende folkemengde Sør-Trøndelag 1801-1960 |url=http://www.rhd.uit.no/dok/nos16.html |publisher=[[University of Tromsø]] |language=no}}</ref> In 1891, the eastern part of Strinda Municipality (population: 2,487) was separated from Strinda to form the new [[Malvik Municipality]], leaving Strinda Municipality with a population of 2,769.<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>
Starting in 1864, a series of border adjustments moved territory from Strinda Municipality to the neighboring [[city of [rondheim]]. On 1 January 1864, an area with 1,229 residents was transferred; then on 1 January 1893, an area with 4,097 residents was transferred; and finally on 1 January 1952, the [[Lade, Trondheim|Lade]] area with 2,230 inhabitants was transferred to Trondheim.<ref name="Dag" />
During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the [[Schei Committee]]. On 1 January 1964, [[Byneset Municipality]] (population: 2,049), [[Leinstrand Municipality]] (population: 4,193), Strinda Municipality (population: 44,600), [[Tiller Municipality]] (population: 3,595), and the [[city of Trondheim]] (population: 56,982) were merged to form the new urban [[Trondheim Municipality]] which would have a total population of 111,419.<ref name="Dag" />
===Name=== The municipality (originally the [[prestegjeld|parish]]) is named Strinda. The name likely comes from the [[Old Norse]] word {{wikt-lang|non|strǫnd}} which means "shore" or "beach", since the main village lies near the shore of the [[Trondheimsfjorden]].<ref name="snl" /><ref>{{Cite book |last=Rygh |first=Oluf |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=AGxBAAAAIAAJ |title=Norske gaardnavne: Søndre Trondhjems amt |date=1901 |publisher=W.
