Dragør Fort, Military fortification and park in Dragør, Denmark

The fort extends over 32,000 square feet on an artificial island south of Dragør, featuring concrete structures, bunkers, and gun emplacements overlooking the sea.

Built between 1910 and 1915 as part of Copenhagen's coastal defense system, the fort protected the harbor and surrounding waters from potential naval invasions.

The fort presents exhibits and artifacts that document military life during its operational years as a crucial element of Danish coastal defense.

Located 12 kilometers from central Copenhagen, the fort now functions as a hotel and restaurant complex with restricted public access and guided tours.

The fortress includes a surrounding wet moat and deck mole that accommodates boats, while maintaining its original military architectural features.
