EspañolSOUTH JUTLAND
(Redirected from Southern Jutland)
'South Jutland' () is the name for the region south of the Kongeå in Jutland. The region north of the Kongeå is called Nørrejylland (''Northern Jutland''). Both territories have had own ting assemblies in the Middle Ages (in Viborg and Urnehoved). South Jutland is mentioned first time in the Knýtlinga saga.
In the 13th century South Jutland became a duchy. First duke was Canute Lavard (''Knud Lavard''). In the late 14th century it became the name Duchy of Schleswig. The duchy was named after the city of Schleswig (''Slesvig'').
Since the Schleswig Plebiscites in 1920 South Jutland is divided into Northern and Southern Schleswig. Northern Schleswig was also known as South Jutland County (1970-2006) and is now part of the Region South Denmark. Southern Schleswig is a part of the German federal state Schleswig-Holstein.
Both parts cooperate today as a Euroregion, that covers most of South Jutland.
