Faxe Ladeplads or Fakse Ladeplads is a coastal town in Denmark with a population of 2,483 (1 January 2024),[1] located in Zealand and lying 5 kilometers south-east from Faxe.
The town is surrounded by forest and sandy beaches with shallow water.
The forest stretches all the way to the sea, and from the edge one can see the island of Møn and the small protected wildlife park, Feddet.
The current name comes from a time in the 19th century when the countship of Vemmetofte decided to build a harbour to service the limestone industry up in the neighboring Faxe town.
The local railway (Østsjællands Jernbane) coming from Køge was inaugurated in 1879, from Faxe Kalkbrud (Limestone Quarry), Faxe Limestone Quarry in Faxe on a narrow gauge railway and the narrow gauge railway was running on a normal gauge railway[clarification needed] to the harbor in Faxe Ladeplads.
