Aarhus Municipality, also commonly known by its Danish spelling Århus Municipality, is a municipality (Danish, kommune) on the east coast of the Jutland peninsula in central Denmark. The municipality covers an area of 469 km², and has a total population of 300,000 ( 28 August 2008). Its Lord Mayor is Nicolai Wammen, a member of the Socialdemokraterne (Social Democrats) political party.
The main town and the site of its municipal council is the city of Aarhus.
Neighboring municipalities are Syddjurs to the north, Favrskov to the northwest, Skanderborg to the southwest, and Odder to the south.
Aarhus Municipality was not merged with other municipalities due to the nationwide Kommunalreformen ("The Municipal Reform" of 2007).
The city of Aarhus
The city of Aarhus is the second largest city in Denmark, the principal port on the east coast of Jutland, and the seat of Denmark's second-largest bishopric. Until December 31, 2006 it was the council site for the now abolished Aarhus County.
