Brønderslev is a typical village that expanded naturally when the railroad between Aalborg and Hjørring opened in 1871. In 1921, Brønderslev became a merchant town; so far the second last town in Denmark to achieve this status. Hedelund (Nørregade/Parkvej) is a large public rhododendron park with more than 10,000 plants and over 100 different species. A walk in Hedelund Park is a wonderful experience
