Charlottenlund Fort, Military fort in Gentofte Municipality, Denmark.
The fort structure includes robust stone walls and defensive positions overlooking the Øresund Strait between Denmark and Sweden.
Construction of Charlottenlund Fort began in 1886 to protect Copenhagen's harbor against naval attacks from the northern sea approach.
The fort grounds are integrated into a public beach park where residents gather for recreational activities and community events throughout the year.
Visitors can access the fort facilities, camping areas, and beach park through public transportation from Copenhagen or by car along coastal routes.
The fort combines military heritage with modern amenities, including a restaurant built directly on the former defense ramparts.
