Port of Copenhagen

It extends from Svanemølle Beach in the north to Hvidovre in the south.

The port is divided into several different areas, many of which are individual harbours: There has been rapid development along the seafront; large parts of the formerly industrial inner harbor have recently been transformed into residential, recreative, and commercial areas.

The port has seen a dramatic resurgence in activity since the 1990s, following a long period of decline following the 1940s.

The Port of Copenhagen dates back to the Middle Ages.

The port was originally owned by the Danish royal family.
