Borgund is a small village in Lærdal Municipality in Sogn og Fjordane county, Norway. It lies along the European route E16 highway, about southeast of the village of Lærdalsøyri. It is the site of the Borgund Church and the historic Borgund Stave Church. Historically, the village was part of the old Borgund Municipality which existed from 1864 until its dissolution in 1964.[2]
The municipality (originally the parish) was named after the old Borgund farm (Norse, Old: Borgyndr), where the historic Borgund Stave Church is located. The name is derived from the old word Borg meaning "fortress" or "stronghold".[3]
