Haderslev, Danmark

Tree: Nederlandse voorouders

Notes:
Haderslev (German: Hadersleben) is a municipality (Danish, kommune) in South Jutland County on the east coast of the Jutland peninsula in south Denmark. The municipality includes the island of Årø as well as several other smaller in the Little Belt, and covers an area of 272 km². It has a total population of 31,573 (2005). Its mayor is Jens Chr. Gjesing, a member of the Social Democrats (Socialdemokraterne) political party.



The main town and the site of its municipal council is the city of Haderslev.



Neighboring municipalities are Christiansfeld to the north, Vojens to the west, and Rødekro to the south. Neighboring municipality to the east Assens is on the island of Funen, and is separated from the municipality by the waters of the Little Belt, which define Haderslev municipality's east and southeast borders. Årø Strait (Årøsund) separates the bulk of the municipality from the island of Årø, and the two are connected by ferry service between the town of Årøsund on the mainland and the town of Årø on the island.



The waters of Haderslev Fjord cut into the municipality from the Little Belt, dividing the city north-to-south, and becoming Haderslev Dam, west of the city center.



By January 1, 2007 Haderslev municipality will, due to Kommunalreformen ("The Municipality Reform" of 2007), be merged with existing Gram and Vojens municipalities, as well as Bjerning, Hjerndrup, and Fjelstrup og Bevtoft parishes of Christiansfeld municipality and Bevtoft parish of Nørre Rangstrup municipality.



The city of Haderslev



History



Haderslev is situated in a valley, leading from Vojens to Haderslev Fjord and the Baltic Sea. Haderslev was presumably founded by Vikings at least a century before it was granted status as royal borough in 1292. At that time, it had become one of the main trading centres in Southern Jutland. In 1327, Haderslevhus, the royal castle, was mentioned for the first time. It was situated east of the cathedral; an area still called Slotsgrunden. In the following centuries the city prospered, building both the Gothic Cathedral and the second castle of Hansborg (burnt in 1644), which was similar to Kronborg. Due to the plague in Copenhagen, King Christian IV was married there. In the 16th century, the city became one of the first Scandinavian places to embrace the Lutheran Reformation. From 1864 it was part of Prussia, and as such part of the North German Confederation, and from 1871 onwards, part of the German Empire. In the 1920 Schleswig Plebiscite that brought Northern Schleswig to Denmark, 38.6 % of Haderslev's inhabitants voted for remaining part of Germany and 61.4 % voted for the cession to Denmark.



Haderslev er en by i det østlige Sønderjylland med 21.140 (1. januar 2006) indbyggere. Siden 1. januar 2007 har Haderslev i forbindelse med strukturreformen været hovedbyen i den sammenlagte Haderslev Kommune med 56.392 indbyggere (1. januar 2005). Byen hører under Region Syddanmark.



Byen ligger i Sønderjyllands længste tunneldal ved Haderslev fjord og omtales allerede af Saxo i begyndelsen af 1200-tallet og fik i 1292 stadsrettighederne. Beboelse af området byen strækker sig over i dag daterer sig dog endnu længere tilbage, hvilket fund fra vikingetiden ved kirken i Starup bevidner. Haderslev dannedes hvor fjorden kunne krydses, og tæt ved vejen fra Danmarks ældste by, Ribe, til færgestedet ved Aarøsund, hvor der siden middelalderen havde været færgefart til Fyn.



Haderslevs vartegn er Haderslev Domkirke, som har eksisteret siden midten af 1200-tallet, og er sædet for Haderslev Stift (siden 1922). Byen var et af arnestederne for reformationen i 1536.



En renovering af byens ældre huse har medført at Haderslev byder på en unik samling af huse og bygninger fra 1400 til begyndelsen af 1900-tallet, og bymidtens brolagte gader og stræder danner en oplagt baggrund for byvandringer.



Tidligere havde byen, ligesom Kolding, et slot: Haderslevhus. Dette menes at have eksisteret siden 1200-tallet, og i slutningen af 1500-tallet erstattedes det af Hansborg. Ulykkeligvis nedbrændte Hansborg under Torstenson-krigen i 1644, og blev aldrig siden genopført.



Haderslev er den eneste by i Danmark udenfor København, der har en vagtparade. Den finder sted hver fredag kl. 12.



Der er planer om at bygge et musikhus i Haderslev, overfor Haderslev Kaserne, til brug for Slesvigske Musikkorps og områdets øvrige musikliv. A.P. Møller og Hustru Chastine McKinney Møllers Fond har doneret 13,5 millioner kroner til projektet.
