Former municipality in Trøndelag, Norway

Stod

Stod is a former municipality in the old Nord-Trøndelag county in Norway.

The 257-square-kilometre (99 sq mi) municipality existed from 1838 until 1964. It originally encompassed the northern part of what is now Steinkjer Municipality, stretching from the town of Steinkjer to the northeast, along the lake Snåsavatnet, to the municipal border with Snåsa Municipality. Over time, however, the municipality was reduced in size to just a fraction of its original size, leaving just the area between the lake Snåsavatnet in the north to the Ogndalen valley in the south. The administrative centre of the municipality was the village of Binde. The main church for Stod was For Church, located just south of the administrative center. The local sports team is Stod IL.
