Brevik (help·info) is a town in Telemark, Norway with an estimated population of 2,700. Brevik was established as a municipality January 1, 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt), but was merged with Porsgrunn on January 1, 1964. Brevik is regarded one of the best preserved towns from the sailing ship era. The town is located on the far end of Eidanger peninsula (Eidangerhalvøya), and was a former export center for ice and timber. The last shipment of wood to the United Kingdom was around 1960.
