Ormslev is a small village in Aarhus Municipality, Central Denmark Region in Denmark with 349 inhabitants in 2015.〔 Ormslev is located 11 kilometres west of Aarhus city, between the settlements of Stavtrup (4 km east), Hasselager (4 km south-east) and Harlev (8 km west). It is situated on the southern slopes of the broad and flat ''Aarhus Ådal'' valley, overlooking the Brabrand Lake and the Aarhus River. The lake and natural site of Årslev Engsø is just 2 kilometers north-east of Ormslev, including the historic manor of ''Constantinsborg''. Route E45 passes by immediately west of Ormslev. Further west, about 3 kilometres, is Aarhus Aadal Golf Club. == History == The church in Ormslev is probably very old, but a large part of it is later additions and the whole church was thoroughly reconstructed in 1739. The area around Ormslev has been cultivated as farmland a long way back, as part of the historic and influential manor of Constantinsborg. Constantinsborg has been a manor for the nobility from at least the 15th century and is also an important agricultural producer today. In 1902-56 the settlement of Ormslev became a railway town of the now abandoned ''Hammelbanen'' rail road line, and the village attracted some industry, such as a grain mill, a dairy and some craftsmen. Half a kilometre southwest, marl was mined and transported by rail and the local farmers send of their vegetables to market. Beginning in the 1930s however, the small industrious village saw a decline, but the former train station has been preserved and restored. It is located about half a kilometre north-west of the village on a lower elevation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ormslev」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
