Norberg Municipality, Mining municipality in Västmanland County, Sweden

Norberg Municipality is a municipality in Västmanland County whose seat is the town of Norberg, on the rivulet Norbergsån. Its terrain is hilly, with moraine covered by forest, many lakes and wetlands such as the raised bog Bredmossen, and open farmland in the Norbergsån and Svartån valleys. The bedrock is granite with large amounts of ore-bearing leptite.

Iron production in Lapphyttan, within the municipality, began in the 12th century and established early mining and industrial practices in the region. This mining activity shaped the area's development for centuries.

Engelbrekt Engelbrektsson, leader of the 1434 rebellion against the king, was born in the 1390s on a farm outside Norberg. The municipality's coat of arms, created in 1948 and registered at the 1971 reform, carries his three half lilies in the lower half and the sign of iron above.

The municipality is accessible by car or public transport and has basic facilities in the settlement areas. Visitors should remember that rural areas have fewer services than urban centers.
