Ærø (Danish pronunciation: [ˈɛːʁœːˀ]) is one of the Danish Baltic Sea islands, and part of the Southern Denmark Region. The name comes from the Danish words ær (maple) and ø (island).
Since 1 January 2007 the whole of Ærø has constituted a single municipality, known as Ærø Kommune. Before that date, there were two municipalities on the island: Ærøskøbing Kommune in the west and Marstal Kommune in the east.
