Encyclopedic overview
Älmhult Municipality (Swedish: Älmhults kommun) is a municipality in central Kronoberg County in southern Sweden. The town of Älmhult is its seat.
In 1901, Älmhult was detached from Stenbrohult and made a market town (köping). The present municipality was created by the local government reform of 1971, when Älmhult was amalgamated with the surrounding rural municipalities.
