Encyclopedic overview
Sävsjö Municipality (Swedish: Sävsjö kommun) is a municipality in Jönköping County, southern Sweden where the town Sävsjö is seat.
The municipality was created by the local government reform of 1971, when the City of Sävsjö (instituted as late as 1947) was amalgamated with parts of two adjacent rural municipalities. Two years later it was completed when Hjälmseryd was added.
