History
The municipality was established on 1 January 1895 when all of Ulstein Municipality located south of the Vartdalsfjorden was separated from the rest of Ulstein to form a new municipality which was called Vartdalsstrand. The new municipality had an initial population of 736. The name was changed (shortened) to Vartdal in 1918. On 1 January 1964, Vartdal was merged with the neighboring municipalities of Hjørundfjord and Ørsta to form the new, larger Ørsta Municipality. Prior to the merger, Vartdal had a population of 1,315.
