Amager Center

On 4 February 1812, it was purchased by Jacob Holm, a ship owner and industrialist from Christianshavn, who wanted to use it for his many industrial enterprises which required still more space.

The buildings which now form part of the shopping centre mostly date from the late 1930s.

The buildings were then taken over by Kamopsaz and the investor and converted into the shopping centre which opened in 1975.

A local plan required the centre to contain a theatre venue and a library.

[1] Amager Centret contains 64 stores and restaurants, covering a total floor area of some 16,000 square metres.
