Tikøb is a parish and small town located 8 km west of Helsingør and six km north of Fredensborg, between Lake Esrum to the southwest and Gurre Lake to the east. in Helsingør Municipality, some 40 km north of Copenhagen, Denmark. ==History== Tikøb was probably founded during the late Viking period. The name is first documented as ''Tiwithcop'' in Esrom Abbey's Book of Letters (''Esrum Klosters Brevbog'') in 1170. It is believed that that name means "acquired land in/by the forest dedicated to the Gods". Tikøb was the largest parish on Zealand and one of the largest in Denmark. The village was originally located on three sides of a small lake. For centuries the village consisted of six farms, one of which was the rectory, a few other houses, an inn and a forge. The first school in Tikøb, a so-called ''rytterskole'', was built in 1722. When the new civil parishes )''sognekommuner'') were established in 1942, Tikøb became the administrative centre of Tikøb–Hornbæk–Hellebæk (later referred to as Tikøb Kommune, "Tikøb Municipality"). The parish had a large population of poor people who were attracted by the opportunity to work in the local forest industry. In 1861, a large social institution Yikøb Workhiuse ''Tikøb Forsørgelses- og Arbejdsanstalt''), was built in the outskirts of town, replacing the old poorhouses. It was one of the first institution of its kind in Denmark located outside a market town. The newly established local fire department was also established and based at the same site. A few years later, i 1867, a municipal office (''kommunekontor''), with daily opening hours, another novelty at the site, opened in the same building complex. From 1877, the institution also had a section for psychiatric patients.〔 A post office also opened in the 186+s. A windwill was built in 1873, a co-operative dairy opened in 1893 and Tikøb Brugsforening eas founded in 1920. The town was also home to a post office and several other stores. In the first half of the 20th century, it was increasingly the communities that became the focus of development. In 1954, both the town hall and the retirement home moved to Esperglærde. The old municipal seat in Tikøb was sold to Copenhagen Municipality and used as a retirement home under the name Gyrrelund. The new Hornbækvej had been constructed in the 1930s as an eastern bypass. Tikøb Lake dried out in the 1950s and together with the new road Harreshøjvej in 1964, this led to the establishment of a new neighbourhood. The 1970 Danish Municipal Reform merged Tikøb Municipality with Helsingør Municipality.〔 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「Tikøb」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
