Geography[edit]
The town is situated in the middle of Jutland. The town is situated 5 km from Hammerum, which is the Eastern outskirts of Herning Municipality. Ikast is situated 28 km from Silkeborg, and 69 km away from Aarhus.
Demography[edit]
As of 1 January 2017, the population of the town is 15,462.[1]
History[edit]
Up until late in the nineteenth century, Ikast was nothing more than a few buildings surrounding the church. During the industrialization, Ikast established a strong presence in Denmark as one of the main towns for the textile industry, which was the main industry in the area until the start of globalization, where production jobs were outsourced.
The opening of the railway in the 1850s led to an increase in population, as the existing part of town surrounding the church, and the new part of town, built around the railway, grew into each other.[2]
The church was originally a Roman church, built in the 13th century. The old church burned down in 1904, and was rebuilt into the new church, which was finished in 1907. The church was expanded several times, with the latest expansion happening in 2005.[3]

Grindsted - A Traffical Centre
Between 1914 and 1919 Grindsted turned into a dynamic town with railways in six directions, an impressive station building, three platforms connected by subways, warehouses, a roundhouse, a water tower and a turntable. Covering approx. 140,000 square metres Grindsted had the 3rd biggest station area in Denmark.
The Birth of Grindsted
Due to the railways, Grindsted changed from being a village on the moor to a fast growing town with big industrial companies, asphalt roads, shops selling all kinds of articles, several grocery shops and a petrol pump on practically each street corner. The town grew from a little more than a few hundred people to thousands.
The Railways
The Danish State built the line between Langa and Bramming. The rest were private railways. The station building was finished on 1-Dec 1916. The architect was Prof. H. Wenck, who also designed the Copenhagen Central Station.
