Ven, or
Hven, is a small
Swedish island in the
Öresund strait, between Sweden and
Denmark. The island was historically under Danish rule, but it fell to Swedish hands after the
Treaty of Roskilde in
1658, as a part of
Skåne. Astronomer
Tycho Brahe (
1546-
1601) built [[Uraniborg],] and
Stjerneborg, here.
