History
This court was established on 26 April 2021 after the old Bergen District Court and Hardanger District Court were merged into one court. Originally, this court was based at two different courthouses which were located in Bergen and Lofthus. The court in Bergen served the Nordhordland and Midthordland areas while the court in Lofthus served the Hardanger area. On 10 June 2025, the district court was divided into two separate district courts. The courthouse in Lofthus became the new Hardanger og Voss District Court, serving all of Hardanger plus Voss Municipality and Samnanger Municipality. The other areas remained as part of the Hordaland District Court which was still based in Bergen. ==References==
