Vorgod-Barde was formed in 2009, when the former villages of Vorgod and Barde merged into a small urban area with a population of 1,023 (1 January 2025),[1] situated in Ringkøbing-Skjern Municipality, Central Denmark Region in Denmark.

Vorgod-Barde is located 5 km east of Videbæk and 17 km west of Herning.

Vorgod Church is located in Vorgod on the southern end of the urban area.[2]

The local museum (Videbæk egnsmuseum) is located just west of Vorgod. It opened in 2002 on an old family farm with stables, a barn and a machine house. The collection features farm and handicraft machinery and tools, as well as household daily items that are typical of the daily life in the area. It also has a collection of Danish elves (nisser) dolls that were donated by Ellen Bredahl, formerly holder of the Guinness Record for the largest collection of these popular Danish dolls.[3][4]
