:''For other meanings of 'Fusa' please see Fusa (disambiguation)''
'Fusa' is a municipality in the county of Hordaland, Norway.
Fusa was separated from Os in 1856. Hålandsdal and Strandvik were separated from Fusa January 1, 1903 - but they were both again merged with Fusa January 1, 1964.
The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the farm Fusa (Norse ''Fúsar''), since the first church was built there. The name is probably derived from ''fúss'' 'eager'. (Here referring to strong stream?)
Until 1918 the name was written ''Fuse''.
The coat-of-arms is from modern times (1991). It shows three spirals. (To represent strong stream and the many giants kettles in the municipality.)
