Vigrestad

Vigrestad is a village in the municipality of Hå, Norway. Its population was 1850 in 2009. It is situated approximately 32 metres above sea level and 7, 5 km from Varhaug, which is the municipality's administrative centre.

The name probably has its origin from the word "vig" meaning battle/war, and "stad" meaning place. There is therefore reason to believe that it was the site of a battle. The name could alternatively originate from the old Norse word "vigr" which means spear. North of the village there are several barrows from the Iron and Bronze Ages.
