Svendborg County

The south Funen area was organized as Nyborg County in 1662, a province also including the Hindsholm peninsula.

This situation lasted until 1970 when Odense and Svendborg merged to form Funen County.

In spiritual matters, the county belonged to the Diocese of Funen.

Ærø Herred was originally a part of Augustenborg County in the Duchy of Schleswig.
