Otredal prosti


This deanery covers the Otra river valley through Vest-Agder and Aust-Agder counties, this includes the Setesdal and upper Torridal valleys. It includes Vennesla municipality (in Vest-Agder) and the municipalities of Bygland, Evje og Hornnes, Bykle, Iveland, and Valle (in Aust-Agder). The deanery is headquartered at Vennesla Church in the village of Vennesla in Vennesla municipality in Vest-Agder county.


Otredal deanery, originally called Torridal, was created 10 May 1862 when it was carved out of the three neighboring deaneries of Råbyggelaget, Mandal, and Vestre Nedenes. Initially, it included Oddernes, Øvrebø, Søgne, and Tveit. Over time, the borders of Torridal deanery have been changed. In 1883, the Søgne parish was moved (back) to the Mandal prosti and the Tveit parish was moved (back) to the Vestre Nedenes prosti. Also in 1883, the parishes of Valle, Evje, and Bygland joined Torridal when the old Setesdal (Råbyggelaget) deanery was dissolved. In 1905, the Tveit parish was moved back to Torridal. On 12 June 1931 the name of the deanery was changed from Torridal to Otredal.[2]
