Roverud

Roverud is a place name in Norway, referring primarily to a village in Kongsvinger municipality, Innlandet county. Roverud is located near the Swedish border.

Historically, Roverud has been a significant transportation hub due to its location. The Kongsvinger Line railway passes through Roverud, and the Roverud Station serves the village. The area is also traversed by major roads connecting Norway and Sweden.

The local economy of Roverud is largely based on agriculture, forestry, and transportation-related services.

The name "Roverud" is likely derived from Old Norse, combining the elements rofa (cleared land) and ruð (clearing). This suggests the area was originally a clearing in the forest.
