Sakskøbing (Danish pronunciation: [ˈsɑksˌkʰøˀpe̝ŋ]), previously spelled Sakskjøbing, is a town on the island of Lolland in south Denmark.

[5] In 1874, Sakskøbing was connected to the Danish rail network as the Lollandsbanen railway line between Nykøbing Falster and Nakskov was opened.

Sakskøbing is located on the north-eastern part of the island of Lolland in a flat and fertile moraine landscape.

The town is located by a tunnel valley, a glacial terrain formation which runs from Sakskøbing in the northwest to the Guldborgsund strait in the southeast.

The tower was built in 1908 by Christiani & Nielsen, but did not receive its smile until 1982, when the architect Flemming Skude decorated it.

[7] The former Sakskøbing Municipality, including the small island of Vigsø, covered an area of 176 km², and had a total population of 9,299 (2005).
