Terslev is a village, with a population of 937 (1 January 2024),[1] in Region Zealand in Denmark. It is located 7 km north of Haslev just south of the tripoint between the municipalities of Køge, Ringsted and Faxe.
Terslev Church dates back to the 12th century and is one of the oldest churches in Denmark. The church was restored by architects Johannes and Inger Exner in 1978–79.[2] [3]
In 1911, when some boys were digging up a garden in Terslev, they came across a silver treasure, of mostly Arab and Persian origin, from the Viking Age.[4] [5]
