History
People have lived on Hildrestranda since the migration period. At Haugneset there are remains of burial mounds. A farm history for the farms on Hildrestranda is being prepared as part of a new village book for Haram municipality. In order to carry out sea fishing on Storegga, also called Eggafiske, the Hildrestrandingen had tillers at Ulla on Haramsøya from 1778.[3][4] On 1 January 2020, the area of Hildre (and all of Haram Municipality became part of Ålesund Municipality.[5][6] However, on 1 January 2024, this merger was undone and the Hildre area became part of Haram Municipality once again.[7]
