The space Place name The name "Tretten" was first documented in 1330 ("a Þroeten" and "a Þroettoene"). According to Rygh, the prefix is probably the Norse word þrótt- m 'power, strength', and the last part is Norse vin f 'meadow, pasture'.[2] The genuine rural pronunciation of the parish name is /"trætte/, but this has today largely been replaced by the standardized pronunciation /"tretten/. Tretten was probably originally the name of the farm that is now called Prestgarden. Prestgarden is located right by the powerful rapids of the Moksa River and the prefix þróttr 'power, strength' probably refers to these. The meaning of the name Tretten then becomes 'the meadow by the waterfall Þróttr'. [needs reference] History In the old days, Tretten village center was located further up in the village than it is today, namely around the farm Prestegarden. Here, at the end of the 13th century, a stone church was built, and the ruins of this are now hidden under Kjørkehaugen. In the Middle Ages, Tretten was a separate parish, but after the Black Death, the village of Tretten could no longer afford its own priest, and Tretten then became an annex parish to Øyer – something it has been ever since. Later in the 1580s, the stone church was replaced with a timber long church. The construction of a new main road further down in the village led to Tretten center gradually being centralized further down than before. Today's church, erected in 1728, was built in the new village center when the old church square had now become too uncentral. The church building was in very poor condition, but has now been rehabilitated. The old, tall church tower that was built in 1807, stood for a long time on the hill next to the church. The church has now received a new and lower tower that is believed to be more similar to the one it had in 1728. In 1894, the construction of Tretten Station on the west side of Tretten began. The station was the terminal station on the Hamar-Selbanen railway from 1894 to 1896. The construction of the station meant that this side of Tretten grew with both hotels, land shops, catering places, homes and meeting rooms. The construction of a bridge was necessary to connect the station area with the east side of Tretten.[3] The very first car that came to Norway in 1895, a Benz Phaeton, came to Tretten and was to serve as an extension of the railway north of the valley. The car ran on a regular route between Tretten and Ringebu from 1896, but went out of service after a short time both due to recurring engine problems and difficult encounters with horse-drawn vehicles along the road. [4] During the Second World War, on April 23, 1940, fierce fighting took place at Tretten, as British infantry brigades tried to stop the German occupation forces' advance northward in Gudbrandsdalen. The British had machine gun posts by the railway on the west side and by the main road on the east side of the valley. The goal was to stop the German forces as they passed through Skarsmoen, where Gudbrandsdalen is at its narrowest. Local forces and the British infantry brigades were attacked by German aircraft and tanks and eventually lost their position, and the German occupation forces were able to continue further north.[5] Norway's biggest train accident, the Tretten accident, occurred north of Tretten station on February 22, 1975. A northbound passenger train from Oslo collided with a southbound express train from Trondheim. With 27 dead and 25 injured, this is Norway's largest train accident in peacetime. There were a total of around 800 passengers on the two trains. The reason for the collision was that the northbound train mistakenly left Tretten station. Geography Tretten is located by the valley lake Losna, which is part of Gudbrandsdalslågen. The valley goes from being wide in the north and narrows in the south at Hovdefossen. Two smaller tributaries flow into Lågen. On the east side of Lågen, the tributary Moksa has its outlet and on the west side the tributary Musa flows out. Musa flows through the side valley Musdal. On the east side of Sør-Tretten is Vardekampen, which was one of several watchtowers in a historical warning system in Gudbrandsdalen. Along the valley on the west side is the Dovrebanen railway. On the east side of Lågen is the E6 highway. During the Vesleofsen flood in 1995, there was no place in Gudbrandsdalen where more damage was done to houses and property than in Tretten. The buildings in the area are located on loose masses that have been left behind by the river Moksa over time. It is common for a river that leaves loose masses that it changes course as the masses build up, unless dams keep the course in place. On June 2, 1995, Moksa broke out of its then course and went over into one of its previous courses. The river caused great damage and took with it several buildings and damaged a number of other buildings. Tretten has mountain areas both in the east and west. The mountain areas in the west are limited to Musdalssætra and Roåker. The areas in the east are part of Øyerfjellet and constitute a large part of Tretten and Øyer municipality's area. Here you will find areas such as Brennlia, Sydda, Holmsætra, Våsjøen, Djupen, Grunna, Ner-Åsta, Øver-Åsta, Lyngen, Pølen and Steinsætra. Economy Agriculture in the village is characterized by farming with cattle and pigs, as well as cultivation of forest, grain and grass. In addition, Tretten has industries such as a dairy, stone grinding and previously a sawmill, as well as a number of companies in tourism and other services. Public services Tretten has an office for NAV and Social Services in Øyer. The medical center is at the Health Center in Tretten. Tingberg in Øyer is the administrative center of the municipality. Tretten has its own community center, with a public library in the same building. The former bank has been closed, and the post office has today become a post office in a store. Tretten currently has a primary school, Aurvoll school. The school was built in 1915, and has undergone major extensions over the years. High school students in the village go to school in Øyer. Below the primary school you will find the village's care and nursing home and Øyer Health Center, and according to tradition, the primary school students sing songs for the elderly and sick every 17th of May. Culture Øyer municipality's thousand-year-old town, Stav, is located on Tretten. Stavsmartn, which is one of Norway's oldest markets, is held at Tretten the first weekend of November each year. Stavsmartn has probably been arranged since the end of the Danish era, but only became a public market in 1857. Stavsmartn was a horse market where the purchase and sale of horses, as well as the production of horses for the Armed Forces' Remont Committee, was central. Eventually, it developed into a sales market where you could buy everything from coffee grinders and honey cakes, to harnesses and horse tools - eventually also tractors and tractor tools. After a decline in the 1930s, there was a violent upswing after World War II. In 1947, there were 1500-1600 horses at Stav during the market, and many of these came by train. Today, Stavsmartn has developed into a market for other products, especially handicrafts and agricultural products. Øyer-Tretten Sports Association was founded in 1913 and operates a number of sports, including alpine, cross country skiing, football, handball, and gymnastics. Tretten Music Association was founded in 1904 and holds regular exercises at Tretten Community House every Monday. Øyer-Tretten School Corps was founded in 1950 and is Gudbrandsdalen's oldest school corps [needs reference]. In addition, Tretten has its own choir. Moksa Art Park, Mølleparken, was created after the great destruction following the great flood in 1995. You will find a number of decorations along and in Moksa, all the way from the river's outlet and up to Moksa Art Workshop. Other things to note The history of Stavsplassen Garden Stav is located in Tretten in Gudbrandsdalen, 30 km north of Lillehammer, and halfway between Kvitfjell and Hafjell alpine resorts. Øyer municipality has a total of about 4,800 inhabitants, and about 1,900 of these live in Tretten. Read the book: Stavsmartn - handel og vandel gjennom 2 århundrer (Stavsmartn - trade and reputation through 2 centuries) electronic edition The book is written by Odd Bjerke and published in 2001 by AL Stavsmartn BA. With a source in Tor Ile's "Bygdebok for Øyer" and a transcript from Mellom-Gudbrandsdal Sorenskriverembete, one can establish that the horse market on Stav is old. Stafs Thingaa is mentioned in a leather letter as early as 1397, but the martin itself has not been found until the end of the Danish era. In the first meeting book of the Øier Conciliation Commission from January 18, 1802, there is a case that was brought against a man who had been in a fight at Stavsmartn the year before, i.e. in 1801. But there is much to suggest that organized horse trading was also conducted at Stav long before that time. On July 27, 1857, it was determined by royal resolution: "- that the so-called Stav Horse Market in Trøtten Annex to Øier Parish in Gudbrandsdalen Bailiwick from next year onwards, is authorized as a public market. The local government saw the economy in the market, while others looked with despair at the moral decline that the liquor licenses and the market life brought with it. At times, between 10 and 20 liquor licenses were granted in connection with the market. Stavsmartn was a horse market where the purchase and sale of horses, as well as the production of horses for the Armed Forces' repair committee, was central. Eventually, it developed into a sales market where you could buy everything from coffee grinders and honey cakes, to harnesses and horse tools - eventually also tractors and tractor tools. After a decline in the 1930s, there was a violent upswing after World War II. In 1947, there were 1500-1600 horses at Stav during the market, and many of these came by train. But as the tractor came and took over as "workhorse" in agriculture, the number of horses at Stavsmartn decreased.
