Bruland is a farming village located about 3.5 kilometres east of the town of Førde in the municipality of Sunnfjord in Vestland county, Norway. The population of Bruland was 212. It is located just south of the river Jølstra, along the European route E39 highway. The lake Holsavatnet is located about 10 kilometres east of Bruland and the small Moskog area lies at the western end of that island. The name of the hamlet, Bruland literally means "land of bridges". Historically, many of the people who worked on the local farm took the surname Bruland.
Bruland was the home of the bailiff or Fogd for the whole Sunnfjord region from 1567 until the end of the nineteenth century. One of the farm buildings at Bruland was moved there from the island of Svanøya in 1789. Many of the old buildings have been restored and are now protected.
