==History==
In 1917, industrial leaders including Sigurd Kloumann and architects Christian Morgenstierne and Arne Eide made plans for a new industrial city at Høyanger. The village was only accessible by boat at that time, and it was located along the largest fjord in Norway, so this site was perfect for transportation and shipping. The village was also chosen due to the local mountains which would provide ample hydroelectricity to power the new industries, the main product of which was aluminum.
There are several industries in Høyanger including the Høyanger metal plant (owned by Norsk Hydro), Norsk Aluminium had a plant there, Aker Kværner runs the maintenance for Norsk Hydro's plant, Bilfelgfabrikken Fundamus builds wheels for Audi cars, and Nyrstar which recycles zinc dust from the steel industry nearby.
