Misje

Misje is an island in Øygarden Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The island lies just south of the island of Toftøyna and north of the large island of Sotra. Almost all of the 320 inhabitants live on the eastern part of the island, which is referred to as the village of Misje.

History

The island was historically part of the old Herdla Municipality. In 1964, it was transferred to the newly established Fjell Municipality. In 2020, it became part of Øygarden Municipality.
Since 1982, Solviksundet Bridge has connected Misje to the neighboring island of Sotra, which, in turn, is connected to the mainland by a series of bridges.
