The Port of Copenhagen stretches for twelve kilometres from north to south, and contains almost 40 kilometres of quays. For the most part,
the harbour area acquired its current form during the years 1900-1920, when Sydhavnen, the South Harbour, was built and the Free Port extended.
More than four million ferry passengers passing through the Port of Copenhagen each year on their way to or from Oslo.
The Port of Copenhagen is creating a new ferry terminal in the area behind the cruise ship quay at Langelinie. The terminal will create space for
exciting cultural institutions elsewhere in the harbour area. The ferry terminal will have the capacity to handle three ferries at once, and will
offer much improved facilities for more than one million annual passengers. The new terminal will become the heart of a new urban area,
with housing and numerous workplaces.
MT Hojgaard Civil Engineering, Earthworks and Piling has the design-build contract for the civil works for Copenhagen's new ferry port terminal.
The new Copenhagen ferry port must be ready in 2004 and will be the new base of the DFDS Seaways traffic to Oslo and Poland.
Many Ferries connect Sweden, Poland and Norway with Copenhagen port, with sailings available throughout the week.
Cultural Copenhagen is a lively city of teeming pavements, outdoor cafes and street performers. Its compact centre is focused on the Rådhuspladsen main
square which makes for easy exploring on foot or by bike - including the charming Tivoli Gardens and Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek art gallery just nearby.
Take your pick from countless places to eat and drink along the pedestrianised Stroget - or the elegant streets surrounding the city's largest square,
Kongens Nytorv.
