Innvik is a village in Stryn Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The village is located on the southern shore of the Nordfjorden. The village is located about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) west of the village of Olden and about 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) northeast of the village of Utvik. Directly across the fjord from Innvik lies the village of Roset.[3]

The 0.71-square-kilometre (180-acre) village has a population (2019) of 431 and a population density of 607 inhabitants per square kilometre (1,570/sq mi).[1]

The village was the administrative centre of the old municipality of Innvik, which existed from 1838 until 1965. Innvik Church is located in the village.

Name

The name comes from the old Innvik farm (Old Norse: Víkr), since Innvik Church is located there. The old name is identical with the word vík which means "inlet". Over time, the prefix inn- (meaning "inner") was added to distinguish the area from nearby Utvik (meaning "outer" Vik). The name Indviken or the more modern spelling Innvik has been in use since the 15th century.[3][4]

gollark: I'm not sure exactly what they're targeting - maybe trendy cloud™-type tools, simple webservers, etc - but even *in* that domain it just seems bad to me.

gollark: If they did in fact mean it as a DSL for deploying bees against Google Cloud, they should say so.

gollark: I mean, I did say "treated as a general purpose language" so it's fairly reasonable.

gollark: It does not say "but only if all you do is interface docker to HTTP to bees" or something.
