Nannestad is a municipality in Akershus county, Norway. It is part of the traditional region of Romerike. The administrative centre of the municipality is the village of Teigebyen.

History

Nannestad was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt).

Name and coat-of-arms

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Nannestad farm ( Old Norse: Nannastaðir), since the first church was built here. The first element is the genitive case of Nanni (an old Norse male name) and the last element is staðir which means " homestead" or " farm".

The coat-of-arms is from modern times. They were granted in 1990. The arms show three yellow coltsfoot flowers on a green background. This is a flower that is prevalent in the area. [5]
