The main city and the site of the municipal council is the city of Slagelse. The mayor was earlier John Dyrby Paulsen, a member of the Social Democratic political party.

The municipality include the inhabited islands of Omø, Agersø and Glænø, as well as the uninhabited islands of Sprogø, Østerfed, Stenfed, Ormø, Fuglehøj, Sandholm, Kidholm and Fugleholm.

On 1 January 2007 the former Slagelse municipality was, as the result of Kommunalreformen ("The Municipal Reform" of 2007), merged with Hashøj, Korsør, and Skælskør municipalities to form an enlarged Slagelse municipality.

History

Slagelse has existed since the 1000s, and coins have been minted there since Cnut the Great's time. It was granted the status of market town by Eric V in 1288. Skælskør was given market town status in 1414. Korsør was granted the same status in 1425. While Slagelse and Skælskør were already important locations before becoming a market town, with the ring castle of Trelleborg located next to Slagelse, Korsør was a more insignificant town before becoming a market town. Korsør's location quickly made it an important town for ferry services to Nyborg on Funen. The three towns became competitors for the land and resources. Korsør's importance as a way to get to Funen allowed Korsør to be favoritized over Slagelse until the 1600s. The town remained small, but fared better than Slagelse, who was struggling. This was also linked to Korsør's access to the sea, giving them a variety of opportunities and privileges, including being able to ship out the grain from many farm areas on western Zealand, leaving them in conflict with the neighboring towns. Slagelse's economy was meanwhile mainly based on artisanry and tobacco. Skælskør was a lesser part of the conflict on western Zealand.^[2][3][4]

Through the Middle Ages the three towns remained market towns, with the remaining territory of the current municipality going under the administrative hundreds of Slagelse Hundred and Vester Flakkebjerg Hundred. These belonged to the syssel of Vestersyssel. In 1660 the syssel was changed and split up into two counties (Danish: amter). These were Antvorskov County and Korsør County, and they approximately made up the current borders of Slagelse Municipality. In 1798 these counties were merged with Sorø County. In the 1970 Danish Municipal Reform the administrative division of the region was changed again. Market towns were dissolved, and Slagelse instead became the seat of the new Slagelse Municipality. Korsør became the seat of Korsør Municipality, Skælskør of Skælskør Municipality and Dalmose of Hashøj Municipality. All four municipalities were in the new West Zealand County. In the Municipal Reform of 2007 these four municipalities were merged to form the current municipality, which became a municipality in the new Region Zealand.^[5]

Nature

 

Tude Å.

Most of the land in the municipality are used for agriculture, leaving little territory for nature. The municipality does have a long coastline with many important spots for especially birds, and there are also a series of forests located around in the municipality.

The Slagelse Forests (Danish: Slagelseskovene) is a number of forests that are more or less grown together and form one of the largests forests in Denmark. These forests are Slagelse Lystskov, Charlottedal Skov, Nykobbel, Valbygård Skov, Treskelskov, Sønder Overdrev and Falkensten Skov. The trees in the forests are mainly broad-leaved trees dominated by beech. There are also areas dominated by Pinales. Several dolmens can be found in the forest. Common birds found in the forest include common buzzard, Eurasian sparrowhawk, common raven, Eurasian woodcock, black woodpecker and tawny owl.^[32]

Tude Å is a river spanning from Trelleborg near Slagelse and out to the coast between Frølunde Fed and Næsby Strand. 208 acres around the river have been protected since 1991. This area is known as Tude Ådal. The river's significance in terms of flora and fauna is limited, but it is a historically important place due to its close ties to Trelleborg and the Vikings.^[33]

100 acres around the hill of Tårnbjerg were protected in 1993. The hill borders Korsør Nor and is located east of Korsør, west of Tårnby and south-east of Svenstrup and Frølunde.^[34]

In the south-west of Slagelse Municipality, bordering Skælskør to the south, is the peninsula of Stignæs. 1,215 acres are protected. The protection was carried out over two stages, first in 1978 and then in 1987. The areas covered in the protection are Stigsnæs, Borreby and Basnæs Nor. The nature of the peninsula include forests, bogs and beach meadows. Doronicum pardalianches is a rare plant in Denmark that can be found on the peninsula. The peninsula is used by many migrating birds, and there are high populations of birds of prey, mainly common buzzard and European honey buzzard. The peninsula is the only breeding spot for the black-tailed godwit on Zealand.^[35]

Glænø and the fjords

Main article: Glænø

Glænø is located between the fjords of Holsteinborg Nor and Basnæs Nor, with the smaller fjord of Øksenæs Nor located further west. Not all territory in the three fjords are protected, but they are all bird sanctuaries with strict rules in regards to hunting in the area. Parts of Øksenæs Nor is protected under the Stignæs protection, while 276 acres in and around Holsteinborg Nor have been protected since 1936. The Holsteinborg Nor protection also covers the small islands of Ormø and Fuglehøj.^[36]

An old-growth forest is located on Ormø, where a large great cormorant colony also breeds. Around 5% of the breeding great cormorants in Denmark breed on Ormø. Other birds that breed in Holsteinborg Nor include grey heron, common eider, European herring gull, common gull, black-headed gull, Arctic tern, mute swan, common coot and white-tailed eagle.^[37]

Basnæs Nor and Øksenæs Nor belong to the same bird sanctuary called Basnæs Nor Sanctuary (Danish: Basnæs Nor Vildtreservat). It is the oldest sanctuary in the country, being established in 1919. Birds that breed in the fjord include common eider, European herring gull, common gull, black-headed gull, Arctic tern and mute swan.^[38]

The land of Glænø are mainly cultivated, though also with beach meadows and a sizable forest of 60 acres. Glænø is under the Holsteinborg Nor sanctuary.^[39]

Agersø

Main article: Agersø

 

Agersø and Omø.

Agersø is located 3 km off the coast of Zealand, with ferry departures to Agersø By leaving from Stignæs Harbour. It is located between the Great Belt and Smålandsfarvandet. The island has a total area of 684, which includes former island of Egholm north of Agersø, which has now grown together with Agersø. Most of Agersø is cultivated, though there are sizable beach meadows on the southern parts of the island. Several amphibians rare in Denmark are found on Agersø. These include European fire-bellied toad, natterjack toad and European green toad. Breeding birds on the island include great black-backed gull, common gull, European herring gull, common eider, mallard, northern shoveler, northern pintail and gadwall.^[40][41]

Omø

Main article: Omø

Omø is located south of Agersø, 6 km off the coast of Zealand. The island has an area of 4.5 km². South of the village of Kirkehavn is a lake, Omø Lake (Danish: Omø Sø), and further west is a bog simply known as the Bog (Danish: Mosen), with the lake of Mosebækken. The greylag goose and Eurasian bittern breed in the area around Omø Lake.^[41]

Sprogø

Main article: Sprogø

 

Sprogø.

Sprogø is 154 acres, and is located centrally in the Great Belt. It connects the two halves of the Great Belt Bridge, and the large amount of traffic caused by that limits the amount of wildlife found on the island. Despite that, the island is a popular breeding spot for many species of gulls and terns. The three Danish species of swallows thrive on the island, making home in the buildings and the lighthouse on the island. The sandwich tern, rare in Denmark, live on the island.^[42][43]

Politics

In the Municipal Reform of 2007 the former Slagelse Municipality merged with the neighboring municipalities of Hashøj, Korsør and Skælskør to form the current Slagelse Municipality.^[44]

On the table below is an overview of all elections held in Denmark since the 2007 Municipal Reform. The percentages in the table are the local results from Slagelse Municipality. The party with the most votes received is shaded in their respective color. The Social Democrats and Venstre tend to be roughly the same size and the two largest parties in most elections. In the 2011 Folketing election the two parties were just 3 votes apart, with the Social Democrats receiving 12,645 votes and Venstre receiving 12,642 votes. On three occasions the largest party in the municipality was a different party. The Danish People's Party became the largest party in the 2009 and 2014 European Parliament elections and the 2015 Folketing election. In the 2014 European Parliament election it was the case in most of the country, and the first time in Denmark's history that the Danish People's Party had been the largest party in a nationwide election.^[45][46]
