Hoor

Hoor is a locality and the seat of Hoor Municipality, Skane County, Sweden with 7,865 inhabitants in 2010. The town's original spelling was Hör. The present, unusual spelling with double o was implemented by the Swedish postal service at the beginning of the 20th century. At that time, it was a common practice in Sweden to write här for here in the address of letters to be delivered within the same town. In order to avoid confusion between letters to be delivered locally and those intended for Hör, the postal service has therefore changed the town's name to Hoor.

Hoor railway station is located on the northern side of the town and a five-minute walk into the central square. It is on the line between Kristianstad and Malmo, where there are frequent commuter trains running beyond Sweden to Copenhagen in Denmark. The following services call at this station incomplete:
