Møgelø is an island in Julsø opposite of Himmelbjerget in Denmark.[1][2] The name Møgelø means "Big Island", as it is the largest in the lake with 28 hectares of land. Between 1915 and 1942, the FDF in Silkeborg bought up a total of 24 acres of land on the island. There are now two FDF cabins belonging to the independent institution.
