Give is a small railway town, with a population of 4,682 (1 January 2024),[1] in Denmark 30 km northwest of Vejle. As a result of "The Municipal Reform" of 2007 Give Municipality was forced to join Vejle Municipality by the Løkke government.
The town is served by Give railway station which used to be the last stop going northwest from Vejle. Later the railway line would be continued to Herning and Holstebro.[3]
Give Church was erected in the 12th century close by a sacred spring. The village of Give has since expanded and grew to prominence in 1892 when the Vejle–Give railway was opened.[4]
