Vejle County

Vejle County (Danish: Vejle Amt) is a former county (Danish: amt) on the east coast of the Jutland peninsula in southern Denmark. The county was abolished effective January 1, 2007, when it was divided between Region Midtjylland (i.e. Region Central Jutland) and Region of Southern Denmark. Vejle became the seat of the latter region.

The Jelling stones are archaeological treasures erected by Harald Bluetooth to honour his parents. Encyclopædia Britannica considers the runic inscriptions the best known in Denmark.

The Haraldskær Woman is a bog body interred in about 500 BC, discovered in a peat bog with a remarkable state of preservation.
