Hurup Thy
Hurup, in postal and railway terms Hurup Thy, is a railway town in the municipality of Thisted in northwestern Jutland, Denmark. It has a population of 2,765 (1 January 2014).
Hurup is the second largest town in the traditional district of Thy. From 1970 to 2006, it was the administrative centre of Sydthy municipality. Hurup ows its existence to the Struer-Thisted railway which was built in 1882. The then larger village of Vestervig, 7 km (4 mi) further west, was the traditional centre of the area, but opted against getting a railway station. Today the biggest industries are Ideal Combi (windows), with more than 500 employees, Huma (mattresses) and a furniture factory. Hurup was the home town of Lars Larsen, founder of the Jysk retail chain and one of Denmark's wealthiest persons.
