==Location== Jelling is located in [[Vejle municipality]] and [[Region of Southern Denmark]]. The town is mainly famous for the [[Jelling stones]], national monuments. Until the [[Municipalities of Denmark#Municipal Reform 2007|Municipal Reform of 2007]] on 1 January 2007, Jelling was the capital of [[Jelling municipality]]. Jelling was also the only town in the former [[Vejle County]] headquarters for a bank β [[Jelling Sparekasse]], which had its headquarters in the town until 2007 when it merged with {{ill|Den Jyske Sparekasse|da}}, headquartered in [[Grindsted]]. Jelling Sparekasse's slogan was: "If king Gorm was alive today ... we would probably be the country's National Bank." One source at least claims that Jelling was the capital of an ancient kingdom of Denmark that was known as Jellund.
