Veøy

Veøy is a former municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway.

It was created as Veøy formannskapsdistrikt in 1837.

On 1 January 1964 the islands Sekken and Veøya as well as the Nesjestranda district, with 756 inhabitants in total, were incorporated into the neighboring municipality Molde. The rest of Veøy, with 1.400 inhabitants, was merged with Eid, Grytten, Hen and Voll to form the new municipality Rauma.

The small village Veøy is now located in southern Molde, near Nesjestranda.
