      Äldre namn för danska Lejre är bland annat Ledre, Ledreborg, Lethreborg, också stavat Lethre, Ledre, Ledhre, Lædre osv..

      Lethra är det latinska namnet för det som numera kallas Lejre, på fornnordiska Hleiðr.

      Enligt danska Wikipedia;

      Ifølge Saxo Grammaticus blev Lejre anlagt af Roars efterfølger, Rolf Krake. Sagn beretter, at Roar var den 23. konge i Lejre, og at det blev anlagt få år før Kristus af Skjold, Odins søn. Danske konger skulle have haft deres hovedsæde i Lejre til det 9. eller 10. århundrede.
