Fehmarn, Baltic Sea island municipality in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.

The third-largest German island covers 185 square kilometers and stands at an elevation of 10 meters above the Baltic Sea level.

The settlement history traces back to the Early Middle Ages when Slavic Lechitic tribes called Wagri established their presence on this maritime territory.

The island municipality maintains four nature reserves where multiple bird species nest during their seasonal migrations across Northern Europe.

The Fehmarn Sound Bridge connects the island to mainland Germany, while ferries from Puttgarden port provide transportation links to Rødby in Denmark.

A commemorative stone marks the location of Jimi Hendrix's final concert performance at Flügge Beach in September 1970.
