History
History
Eydehavn grew up around a smelting factory and an aluminium factory starting around 1912. The village became quite the industrial hub for the area. In 1919, when the new Stokken Municipality was created, the village of Eydehavn was chosen to be the administrative centre. In 1962, Stokken Municipality was merged with some other areas and together they formed the new Moland Municipality. Eydehavn was then chosen to be the administrative centre of Moland Municipality as well. In 1992, Moland Municipality was incorporated into an enlarged Arendal Municipality.
