Vejrup – Village of the Year 2008
230 local businesses, an important tourist attraction and a strong community. These are some of the things that characterise the village of Vejrup, nominated Village of the Year 2008 by Danish association, Villages of Denmark.
This year's theme has been "A village community's physical development", which Vejrup near Esbjerg has accomplished more than any other village in Denmark.
Vejrup has 230 local businesses. "Olsens Paradis" is a major tourist attraction. There is a strong community spirit and range of interest groups and associations. The local citizens recently demonstrated this by raising over one million kroner to fund the expansion of the local leisure centre. Vejrup is a model village and a good example of Danish village community. Such was the verdict of the panel of judges, whose members included former Interior Minister, Britta Schall Holberg.
