Horslunde

In 2010, Horslunde was named "Village of the Year" by the National Association of Villages in Denmark.^[3][4] The jury emphasized that through popular commitment and community involvement, the town had managed to preserve a number of both public and private services. These include a daycare, kindergarten, elementary school, private school, youth club, sports hall, library, elderly center, bus terminal, music school, medical school, a pharmacy, post office, grocery shop, filling station, and bakery.

The town upholds traditions such as shrovetide, midsummer, harvest festivals, and Christmas trees, but has also created a new initiative it calls "Horslunde as an energy village",^[5] through which local craftsmen have carried out energy-saving work worth almost 8 million DKK, with support from Realdania and the state's initiative fund,^[6] as well as installing solar cells in the fields adjacent to the town.^[7]

The Nordvestskolen public school has a branch in Horslunde with 275 pupils in grades 0-9, as well as the Ravnekrogen after-school care centre. The town also previously featured Horslunde Realskole, a private school which taught pupils in grades 0-9. In January 2024, it was announced that the school would close in March,^[8] however, that same month the school declared bankruptcy and closed with immediate effect.^[9]
