Brønnøysund is an idyllic little town where the sea and the land meet. It was the Church, the fishing industry, trade and services that shaped Brönnöysund. The town's name derives from the various wells and sources used by the sailors. The town was established around the turn of the century. Sights include: the old town with its turn-of-the-century houses, the "Havngata", the Bronnoy Church, the recreation area at Svarthopen, the Hulebo caves near Frokenosen and "Torghatten" - mountain with the hole.
