Levanger Municipality, Administrative district in Trøndelag, Norway

Levanger Municipality stretches along the eastern shore of Trondheimsfjorden and contains several settlements including Eidsbotn, Åsen, Ekne, and Skogn.

The municipality emerged from the formannskapsdistrikt law in 1838, followed by numerous boundary adjustments through municipal mergers in subsequent years.

The name Levanger originates from Old Norse words Lif meaning sheltered and angr meaning fjord, reflecting the geographical characteristics of the region.

The municipality provides essential services through its administrative center, managing education, healthcare, and infrastructure for over 20,000 residents.

Archaeological findings at Alvshaugen burial mound near Alstadhaug Church date from 300-600 CE, establishing human presence since the Iron Age.
