History
[edit | edit source]Hustad is a former royal estate and noble seat that was located along the Hustadvika coast. The royal estate was first mentioned in 1122-1123 when King Øystein Magnusson died here. The estate came into the possession of the Rosenkrantz family in the 16th century and later belonged to governor Christoffer Urne and then Johan Frimann. In 1713, the then owner, the priest Knud Mann, left the estate to Reknes Hospital. Hustad was then divided into a number of farms, and all traces of the main estate are gone today.[4]
