**Tyringe** is a [locality](/source/Urban_areas_in_Sweden) situated in [Hässleholm Municipality](/source/H%C3%A4ssleholm_Municipality), [Scania County](/source/Scania_County), [Sweden](/source/Sweden) with 4,658 inhabitants in 2010.[1]

## History

Administratively the place was made a [municipal community](/source/Urban_areas_of_Sweden#Popular_and_traditional_terms) (*municipalsamhälle*) within the rural municipalities of Finja and Västra Torup in 1928. In Sweden, the term *municipalsamhälle* was previously used for certain localities, functioning as a "submunicipality" with certain regulations granted by the king and also in effect for towns. The local government reform of 1952 created *Tyringe Municipality* out of five former entities. The last four (among them Tyringe) of the once 240 *municipalsamhällen* were dissolved in 1971. The municipality was [amalgamated](/source/Amalgamation_(politics)) with [Hässleholm Municipality](/source/H%C3%A4ssleholm_Municipality) in 1974.[2]

Tyringe was mentioned in writing (with exactly the same spelling as today) in 1530. The name has not been fully interpreted.[3]

By the 17th century, a more organized village center emerged around the village inn. It grew to an urban area after the inception of the [railway](/source/Railway) between [Hässleholm](/source/H%C3%A4ssleholm) and [Helsingborg](/source/Helsingborg) in 1875, and at the turn of the 20th century, it became known as a popular vacation [spa town](/source/Spa_town) for vacationers arriving to receive [mineral cure treatments](/source/Mineral_spa) at the [mineral spring](/source/Mineral_spring). A [sanatorium](/source/Sanatorium) and several hotels and inns were built during this era, including the upscale Tyringe Kurhotell built in 1904.[4]

In 1923, various [metalworking](/source/Metalworking) industries were established in Tyringe, resulting in a population increase.

Tyringe Church was built in 1925. The architecture includes typical [Scanian](/source/Scania) [crow-step gables](/source/Crow-step_gable), and is modeled on [Gumlösa Church](/source/Guml%C3%B6sa_Church), which was built in 1191. Since 2006, Tyringe church is no longer open to the public except for mass and various services; it is locked after having been burgled in March 2006, at which time the church's silver [chalice](/source/Chalice_(cup)), [paten](/source/Paten) and chandeliers, among other things, were stolen.[5] Since the 1990s, Scania has experienced a steady rise in crime.[6] This has affected even smaller urban areas like Tyringe.[7]

Tyringe has two schools, the Tyre School and the Vedhygge School. The Tyre School accommodates pupils from the surrounding villages, including [Finja](/source/Finja), [Hörja](/source/H%C3%B6rja), [Matteröd](/source/Matter%C3%B6d), [Röke](/source/R%C3%B6ke), [Västra Torup](/source/V%C3%A4stra_Torup) and other smaller villages.
