Höör is a small town in Scania, southern Sweden and the seat of Höör Municipality, Skåne County. It has a population of about 7,400, about the half of the municipal total of 14,800.

The unusual spelling with double "ö", was implemented by the Swedish postal service in the beginning of the 20th century. At that time it was common that, on local letters, the place of destination was replaced by the word "Här" (sw. for "here"). In order to avoid confusion the spelling of the name Hör was therefore changed to Höör.

The train station in Höör is located on the line from Kristianstad to Malmö, making it quick and easy to commute. Also basically situated through the town is a large road leading north and south.
