Until 1 January 2007 '''Ravnsborg''' was a municipality ([[Danish language|Danish]], ''[[Municipalities of Denmark|kommune]]'') on the northwest coast of the island of [[Lolland]] in the former [[Storstrøm County]] in south [[Denmark]]. The municipality, including the islands of [[Fejø]] and [[Femø]], covered an area of 198 km<sup>2</sup>, and had a total population of 5,569 (2005). Its last mayor was Stig Vestergård, a member of the [[Social Democrats (Denmark)|Social Democrats]] (''Socialdemokraterne'') [[Politics of Denmark|political party]]. The main town and the site of its municipal council was the town of [[Horslunde]]. [[Ferry]] service connects the former municipality to Langeland from a harbour west of the town of Sandby, and to the islands of Fejø and Femø from the town of Kragenæs. Ravnsborg municipality ceased to exist as the result of [[Municipalities of Denmark#Municipal Reform 2007|''Kommunalreformen'' ("The Municipality Reform" of 2007)]]. It was merged with existing [[Holeby]], [[Højreby]], [[Maribo]], [[Nakskov]], [[Rudbjerg]] and [[Rødby]] municipalities to form the new [[Lolland Municipality]]. This created a municipality with an area of 892 km<sup>2</sup> and a total population of 49,469 (2005). The new municipality belongs to [[Region Zealand]] (''"Region Sjælland"''). <!-- ==The town of Horslunde == --> <!--{{main|Horslunde}}--> <!-- ===History=== --> <!-- ==Attractions== --> <!-- ==Famous residents of the municipality== --> ==External links== * [http://www.lolland.dk/ The new Lolland municipality's official website (Danish only)] ==References == * Municipal statistics: [https://web.archive.org/web/20070812152043/http://www2.netborger.dk/Kommunefakta/ NetBorger Kommunefakta], delivered from [http://www.kmd.dk/ KMD aka Kommunedata (Municipal Data)] * Municipal mergers and neighbors: [https://web.archive.org/web/20061208085744/http://kommune.eniro.dk/region/media/nyekommuner.shtml Eniro new municipalities map] {{Storstrøm County}} {{Authority control}} {{Coord missing|Denmark}} [[Category:Former municipalities of Denmark]]
