Mårslet is a railway town in Denmark, located about 11 km (6.8 mi) south of Aarhus. It has a population of 5,174 (1 January 2025). Mårslet is located in Aarhus Municipality and therefore is part of the Central Denmark Region.
Mårslet is situated on the historical Odderbanen, the railway line between Odder and Aarhus, and the resulting short journey time to these urban centres has been an important factor in the town's development since the opening of the line in 1884. Mårslet has seen especially rapid housing development and population growth in recent years.
