Norn was an industrial community in central Sweden, near Hedemora in Dalarna, within the present-day Hedemora Municipality. It was founded in 1628 by Lars Larsson.

The industry had continued for almost three hundred years when it finally shut down in 1916, though the power station that supplied electricity to the village is still in use. There are several mines in the surrounding forest, although none of them is currently operating. The village consists of a number of houses including a chapel, a blacksmith, a school, a watermill, and a library.
