'''Ljusnarsberg Municipality''' ({{langx|sv|Ljusnarsbergs kommun}}) is a [[municipalities of Sweden|municipality]] in [[Örebro County]] in central [[Sweden]]. Its seat is located in the town of [[Kopparberg]].

In 1908 Kopparberg was detached from the rural municipality Ljusnarsberg to form a market town (''[[köping]]''). In 1962 they were reunited.

It was the birthplace of [[Hjalmar Andersson]], A cross country runner

== Geography ==
[[Kopparberg]] is located by the outlet of the [[Arboga River]], about 80&nbsp;km north of [[Örebro]]. The municipality borders the [[Provinces of Sweden|province]] or ''landskap'' [[Dalarna]] to the north. One of the highest points is the mountain [[Gillersklack]] which is a popular winter resort with both downhill and cross country skiing.
Ljusnarsberg lies in a mountainous mid-lower-central district of Sweden named [[Bergslagen]] (Berg = mountain, lag = law). While Swedish municipalities typically are named after their seat, Ljusnarsberg got a different name due to [[Dalarna County]] to its north being known as [[Kopparberg County]] after a [[Falun]] [[Falun Mine|copper mine]] until 1997.

The area has historically been a mining district.

=== Localities ===
Town with over 50 inhabitants:
* [[Kopparberg]], including [[Bångbro]] 3,300 (seat)
* [[Ställdalen]] 736
* [[Stjärnfors]]
* [[Ställberg]]
* [[Högfors (Sweden)|Högfors]]
* [[Mossgruvan]]
* [[Hörken]]
* [[Bastkärn]]
* [[Silverhöjden]]
* [[Yxsjöberg]]

== Economy ==
One of the largest industries is the [[Kopparbergs Brewery]], making beer and cider distributed both nation- and worldwide, and is arguably one of the best known brands of that kind in Sweden.

The municipality is part of a regional ''KNÖL''-group ([[acronym]] for ''Kommuner i Norra Örebro Län''), consisting of Ljusnarsberg Municipality, [[Nora Municipality]], [[Lindesberg Municipality]] and [[Hällefors Municipality]].
