Peatlands in Jardelund and Frøslev
Redaktioneller Artikel
East of Jardelund, just behind the forest, lies the cross-border nature reserve "Frøslev-Jardelunder Moor". Until the 1960s, peat was mechanically extracted there and processed into briquettes. In the past, many inhabitants of the surrounding villages had bog plots there for peat extraction. This moor is very well known in Denmark, mostly because of an incident that happened there in 1872, when North Schleswig still belonged to Prussia: Rasmus Jørgensen from Ellund had found something shining brightly in the bog while cutting peat. It turned out to be a precious shrine. At first Jørgensen hid it at home, but later he showed it to his trusted Danish-minded teacher Jens Madsen. Madsen convinced the Jørgensen family that they should hand over the shrine to its rightful place in the Danish Museum in Copenhagen. To do this, however, Madsen had to smuggle it across the border at the Königsau/Kongeåen brook. So, he dismantled the shrine and packed the enamelled and gilded copper plates between pieces of clothing in his suitcase. He was lucky and was not caught smuggling. Otherwise, he would have landed in prison, and the famous Frøslev shrine, over 900 years old, might never have ended up in Denmark. Today, the richly decorated Christian reliquary is located in the Danish National Museum in Copenhagen. A replica of the Frøslev shrine was endowed the Danish Crown Prince and Crown Princess on the occasion of their wedding in May 2004 as a gift from the people of Sønderjylland (South Jutland).
