Therefore, the place name signs indicate the main village today as Bylderup-Bov . The settlement area summarized in this way had 1,332 inhabitants on January 1, 2020.

history

As a less fertile area, the Schleswig Geest has always been less populated than the western and eastern areas. In the Middle Ages, Bylderup belonged to the district of Harde Slogs Herred together with the neighboring churches of Hostrup , Højst (German: Hoist ), Ravsted (German: Rapstedt ), Tinglev (German: Tingleff ) and partly Bjolderup and the village of Bommerlund from the municipality of Bov (German: Schluxharde ). Bylderup was their center. The place of justice was nearby, the Hardesvogt lived for a long time at Haistruphof. There were very few noble estates. Karlswraa is one of the oldest aristocratic estates in all of Schleswig , at the end of the 15th century it belonged to a branch of the Rantzau family . But it lost its independence early on and came to other estates, most recently to Lindewitt and Satrupholm . Haistruphof gained the status of a chancellery under the legendary Hardesvogt Nis Henriksen at the beginning of the 16th century. Until the 18th century saw the use of professional lawyers as Hardesvögte (court presidents and police officers), the owners at Haistruphof mostly provided the Hardesvogt of the Schluxharde.

In the late Middle Ages, the offices developed into the most important administrative units. The Slogs Herred became part of the Tondern office . In 1544 the office of Tondern came to Johann the Elder , after his death in 1581 to Gottorf , where it remained until the reunification of Schleswig under the Danish king in 1713/21.

After the Duchy of Schleswig was conquered by Prussia in 1864 and separated from the Danish crown, Bylderup was subordinated to the district court district and the district of Tondern and divided into the above-mentioned communities. The German-Danish conflict that arose in the 19th century was never as violent here as it was elsewhere.

The referendum on whether or not to belong to the state of Germany or Denmark in 1920 brought a Danish majority of 348 to 204 votes. Despite the large German share, the Danish majority was clearer than in Burkal and even more so than in Tinglev , which was mostly German. From June 15, 1920 Bylderup was a Danish parish in the newly cut office Tondern. It stayed there until 1970 when it became part of Tinglev Municipality , while the offices were merged into Sønderjyllands Amt . Since January 1, 2007, Bülderup has been part of the Aabenraa municipality (German: Aabenraa ), despite the centuries-old connections with Tondern .

Economy and Transport

The municipality of Bylderup is characterized by agriculture, many residents commute to work in the direction of Tønder or Tinglev . Bülderup is well connected to the regional road network via Fernstraße 8. The Tønder – Tinglev railway line, built in 1868, was closed in 1974. It runs through the parish in an east-west direction. The Bylderup-Bov train station was to the west in the parish of Burkal near Bov. For the eastern part of the municipality, the Terkelsbøl station was closer to Tinglev. Freight traffic was still running here until 2004, but the future of the route has been uncertain since then.
