South Jutland County Nazis did not dispute. Central Schleswig chose to remain with Southern Schleswig as part of Germany and is today a part of the German state of Schleswig-Holstein. A small ethnic German minority still lives in South Jutland county - predominantly in and near the towns of Tønder and Aabenraa (German: "Tondern" and "Apenrade"). Important settlements: Sønderborg (27,000), Aabenraa (15,000), Haderslev (21,000 people) and Tønder (8,000). As reconstituted in 1970, South Jutland County had slightly different borders to the area gained from Germany in 1920: the towns of Hejle, Taps and Vejstrup (which were Danish throughout the period 1864 to 1920)
