Roan is a municipality in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. It is part of the Fosen region in the northern part of the county. The administrative centre of the municipality is the village of Roan. Other villages include Bessaker, Brandsfjord, and Hofstad.
The municipality of Roan was established on 1 June 1892 when the old municipality of Bjørnør was divided into three separate municipalities: Roan, Osen, and Stoksund. The initial population of Roan was 2,069. The borders of the municipality have remained the same since then.The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old Roan farm where the first church was built. The name is probably derived from the Old Norse word róða which means “pole” a reference to a mountain peak behind the farm.
