Bolderslev (German : Bollersleben) is a town in Aabenraa Municipality, within the Region of Southern Denmark. It had a population of 1,109 inhabitants as of 1 January, 2024. [1] It is the main town in Bjolderup Parish.

Bolderslev is 7 kilometers away from Tinglev, 7 kilometers from Hjordkær, 12 kilometers from Aabenraa, and 23 kilometers from Padborg.

Bolderslev was previously a railway town on the East Jutland Line between Tinglev and Rødekro, but the railway station has now been closed and demolished. The double-track railway and the heavily used Hellevad-Bov road divide the town into three smaller parts. A few kilometers southeast of Bolderslev is the memorial for the old South Jutland courthouse Urnehoved [2] and south of the town are 18 burial mounds from ancient times, of which Toppehøj and Bredhøj are among the largest. Three kilometers west of Bolderslev is the Bjolderup Church [3] of the Bjolderup Parish.

The headquarters of Kohberg Bakery Group is located in the town.
