Parish (Denmark)
In Denmark, a parish ( Danish: ''sogn'', plural ''sogne'') is a local ecclesiastical unit in the Church of Denmark. Each parish is assigned to a physical church, and the church's administration (''sognekontor'') handles the area's civic registration of births, marriages and deaths. Each Danish municipality is composed of one or more parishes. From the middle of the 19th century until the 1970 administrative reform, parishes not located in a Danish market town ('' købstad'') also operated as the lowest level of civil administration, either individually or in groups of two or three parishes known as parish municipalities (''sognekommuner''). In the civil context, the parish was headed by a parish council (''sogneråd''), the chairman of which was called a parish chairman (''sognerådsformand'', literally meaning a parish council chairman). History Danish parishes originated in the Middle Ages. Beginning in 1645, Danish pastors have been required to maintain a parish register (''k ...
