Tuse is a village in Denmark, located about 5 km (3.1 mi) west of Holbæk. It has a population of 1,322 (1 January 2023).[1] Tuse is located in Holbæk Municipality and therefore is part of the Zealand Region.
The town has a relatively large local historical significance, as it controlled trade between Holbæk Fjord and the area further up from the stream of Tuse Å in ancient times. The town has thus given its name to the late Tuse Herred and Tuse Næs.[2]
