Bjørnør is a former municipality in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. It encompassed the present-day municipalities of Roan and Osen, plus the Stoksund area in present-day Åfjord, all in the western part of the Fosen peninsula. The municipality bordered Aafjord in the south and Nordre Trondhjem county to the north and west.
The municipality of Bjørnør was established on 1 January 1838 (see formannskapsdistrikt). On 1 June 1892, Bjørnør ceased to exist when it was split into three new municipalities: Osen (population: 1,575), Roan (population: 2,069), and Stoksund (population: 1,122).
