Børglum

Børglum is a Danish village with a population below 200 (1 January 2011)[1] in Hjørring municipality, Region Nordjylland (until December 31, 2006; Løkken-Vrå municipality, North Jutland County).

The abbey was also the seat, from about 1220 until 1536, of the Roman Catholic Bishopric of Børglum.

Gutzon Borglum is best known for his sculptured portraits of American presidents carved in the stone of Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills region of South Dakota.

A relatively unknown tale by Hans Christian Andersen is titled "The Bishop of Børglum and His Kinsmen"[2][permanent dead link‍].
