Gudme is a town in southern Denmark with a population of 906 (1 January 2025), located in Svendborg municipality on the island of Funen in Region of Southern Denmark. Until 1 January 2007, it was the site of the municipal council of the now former Gudme municipality.
==History== Gudme was an important site during the Iron Age. Numerous archeological finds dating from the 3rd to the 6th century have been made here; they include large amounts of gold treasure and the remains of what is assumed to have been a royal palace. Bracteates were produced at the site during that period, indicating a shamanic culture in Gudme. The name of the town means "gods' home", leading to the assumption that it was an important religious site as well.
