History
The municipality was established on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt). The original municipality was the same as the parish (prestegjeld) of Hjørundfjord. On 1 January 1964, Hjørundfjord and the neighboring municipalities of Vartdal and Ørsta were merged into one large Ørsta Municipality. Prior to the merger, Hjørundfjord had a population of 1,728.
