Encyclopedic overview
Laxå Municipality (Swedish: Laxå kommun) is a municipality in Örebro County in central Sweden. Its seat is located in the town of Laxå.
In 1967 the market town (köping) of Laxå (instituted in 1946) was merged with two adjacent rural municipalities. One of them was transferred from the former Skaraborg County, placing today's municipality in two historical provinces, Närke and Västergötland.
