Ostøya
Ostøya is an island in the western section of Oslofjord (Vestfjorden), within the borders of the municipality of Bærum. It is the second largest island in the Oslo basin, after Nesøya. It is adjacent to the municipal border with Asker, where Nesøya and Brønnøya are to its northwest and southwest, respectively. Within Bærum, Borøya is to the north, Kjeholmen to the northeast, and Grimsøya to the east. To the south is Gåsøya.
==History==
At some point the island was split in two. The island is named after the farm that is situated on it. The etymology of Oust, or Ost is uncertain. O. Rygh claims the etymology is unknown but that the farm derives its name from the island's original name. Others speculate that it may have an Old Norse origin related to ''ouste'', in the sense of claiming new land.〔
In 1396, the (pre-Reformation) diocese in Oslo was listed as the owner of farm (then spelled Ost) and the island, and by 1557 (after the Reformation) it was owned by the crown and spelled Oust. In 1791, the owner is listed as Hans Haagensen Tveter, and his descendants still own the main farm. In accordance with practice at the time, they also took the last name Oust. They successfully petitioned the minister at Haslum church for their own gravesite, citing the distance to the church and the need to quickly bury cholera victims.A royal grant was given.〔
In 1899 a significant portion of the island (Lille Oust) was sold for recreational summer houses.〔
