Municipal area

Church in Sønderby

The municipality covers almost 17 square kilometers, on which 556 people live (as of January 1, 2020), 150 years ago it was more than 1000. The moraine land, which rises up to 20  moh , is quite fertile, but almost completely without forests.

The settlement is predominantly characterized by single farms and smaller groups of houses. Only Sønderby ( Eng .: Sonderby ) and Østerby ( Eng .: Osterby ) form closed villages. Together they form a district, while the northern part belongs to the district of Hjortholm (originally in 1649 Lower German Hartzholm , German: Hirschholm ), the eastern part belongs to the district Nygaard (German: Neuhof ). The three districts formed independent rural communities from 1867 to 1920.
