Øyfjell
Øyfjell is a village in Vinje municipality, Norway. As many other rural villages in Norway, Øyfjell has witnessed a decline in population. Currently the village is trying to reverse the development with a project called Øyfjell City, which aims to draw people and businesses to the village.
The current name is derived from Ødefjeld which is connected to the impact left on the village by the Black Death. A stave church, Øyfjell stave church, was previously located here but is now dismantled.
