Old Årdal Church (Norwegian:Årdal gamle kirke) is a historic parish church in Hjelmeland municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. It is located in the village of Årdal. The church is part of the Årdal parish in the Ryfylkedeanery in the Diocese of Stavanger. The red, wooden church was built in 1620. The church seats about 250 people. The church served this area from its completion date in 1620 until 1919 when the new Årdal Church was completed nearby. Since that time, the church has been used for special occasions such as weddings and concerts. There are two regularly scheduled worship services held at the church each year, one service on Olsok and one other Sunday morning in the summer. The interior of the church is decorated with hand-painted rosemåling.
Årdal is a modern industrial community, with ties to the old society of farming and fishing. It is surrounded by dramatic nature with high mountains and waterfalls. The climate is rather mild and with less rain than normal in the west part of Norway. Årdal is a good starting point to explore the wild nature of Jotunheimen National Park, and with summer and winter activities within its boundaries. The Vettisfossen waterfall (highest in Norway) is located within the municipality.
Name
The Old Norse form of the name was Árdalr. The first element is the genitive case of á which means "river" (referring to the Utla river) and the last element is dalr which means "valley" or "dale". Until 1921, the name was written Aardal.
Årdal is loved for the gorgeous natural scenery. The valley Utladalen and
Vettisfossen, the highest protected waterfall in Norway are the highlights.

Hydro Årdal 75 år | Det "fantasifulle eksperimentet" som ble til virkelighet
28. januar 1947 ble AS Årdal Verk etablert. Den gangen mente noen at det var et «fantasifullt eksperiment» at norsk aluminiumindustri skulle kunne hevde seg mot mektige konkurrenter. 75 år senere står Hydro Årdal sterkt som moderne hjørnesteinsbedrift som leverer lavkarbonaluminium til blant annet europeisk bilindustri.
Les Hydros pressemelding her: https://www.hydro.com/no-NO/media/news/2022/hydro-ardal-markerer-75-ar/
I dag ansetter Hydro Årdal om lag 530 årsverk i tillegg til ca. 40 lærlinger, 30 kontraktører og 130 ferievikarer. Aluminiumverket produserer over 220.000 tonn aluminium i året, som hovedsakelig går til kunder innen bilindustri, emballasje og bygg & anlegg i Europa.
Ved å kombinere vannkraft som energikilde og verdensledende produksjonsteknologi kan Hydro Årdal levere...
