Jens Juel-Vind

Jens Juel-Vind (1694 – 20 December 1726), baron of Juellinge, was a Danish chamberlain and landowner.

Early life Juel-Vind was born in 1694, the son of Frederik Vind of Harrested and Baggesvogn, and Sophia Catharina, Baroness Juel of Juellinge. His mother was a daughter of the statesman Jens Juel. He had no sons to succeed him as Baron of Juellinge and the estate was therefore passed on to his son-in-law in 1700.

Career and property He owned Juellinge from 1706. On 1 May 1708, he was awarded title of frierre under the name Juel-Vind. He was a student at the University of Copenhagen from 1712 to 1717. He served as a squire (kammerjunker) at Frederick IV's court. In 1719, he ceded the Barony of Juellinge to the king in exchange for Halsted Priory on Lolland. On 26 December 1721, Halsted Priory was elevated to a barony under the name Juellinge. He then served as squire for Princess Sophia Hedwig. On 1 April 1725, he was appointed to chamberlain (kammerherre).
