Idyllic Dragør has so much to offer – a breathing space
right outside the bustling metropolitan of Copenhagen.
The natural centre of the town is the Old Harbour with
the Pilot Tower, towering above one of the largest listed
urban environments in Denmark. Also the fishermen’s
shanties are situated here in the lively place “Capsule
Street”. The Old Town of Dragør is internationally renowned. Everybody enjoys a stroll in the crooked, pedestrian
streets and alleys with cobblestones, hollyhocks, and
yellow cottages with red tiles or thatched roofs.
Geese and Dragør
Geese are the landmark of Dragør. In earlier time they moved freely
around in the streets and alleys. Today the geese have their own
“Goose Republic” south of town. The life of the geese breeders and
the geese is unique in Denmark and has been portrayed several times
on TV and film.

WELCOME
to
Dragør
Shipping Town since 1200
Dragør is already mentioned in Saxo’s Chronicles of Denmark
(Saxonis Grammatica Historia Danica). In the Middle Age the town
was centre for the great herring adventure in the Sound.
In the beginning a poor fishing village – later ever-richer and bigger
on trading with the outside world. In the 18th century Dragør was the
biggest shipping town in Denmark – second only to Copenhagen.
But the war with England in 1807 cost the town a large part of its ships,
and it was never as before. With the steamships at the end of 19th
century the days of glory of Dragør were over.
During the Second World War many Jews fled to Sweden hidden
in fishing boats – one of which, the cutter K571 Elisabeth of Dragør, is
now a museum ship and can be seen in the harbour. Three museums
portray Dragør: Dragør Museum with the Maritime history and beautiful interiors, the Pilot Museum in the oldest pilot station in Denmark
at the harbour, and the maritime painter Christian Mølsted’s Museum.
The military strategic location of Dragør by the always busy Baltic
Sea has implied that Dragør has two forts – Dragør Fort which is
situated close to the town and Kongelundsfortet far south by Kongelunden.
Dragør has many exciting shops, cafes and restaurants.
Dutchman Town
The village Store Magleby with its pond and beautiful farms is
situated near Dragør. Amager Museum tells the history of the entire
Amager; where King Christian II in the 16th century invited Dutch
peasants to Amager to grow vegetables. The museum has preserved
the charming living rooms and a beautiful collection of local costumes and embroideries. It also shows the farming and gardening
of Amager in the old days with live pigs, cows, sheep, and vegetables – fun for the whole family.
The old town is car free – however, residents are allowed to drive to their house.
A round trip on foot or perhaps on a bike is the best way to experience the town.

Live urban environments
Dragør and Store Magleby are active towns where people live a
fully modern life in the well preserved houses. Yes, even cinema
and golf are available.
The locals of Dragør love their community, but are happy to
share it with the guests coming to town.
Closer than you think
By car: Dragør is only 20 minutes or 12 km/8 miles away from the
centre of Copenhagen. The new coast road around Copenhagen
Airport (highway to Sweden – exit 16) makes it a very scenic drive
along the Sound to Dragør. The trip is also attractive by bicycle.
By train and bus: Train from Copenhagen / Malmoe or metro to
Copenhagen Airport and bus 35 to Dragør. Bus 350S for instance
from Nørreport or Kongens Nytorv. The trains also stop at Tårnby
Station where there is a connection to Dragør with bus 350S.
Information about activities and events can be obtained from
Dragør Tourist Information: Strandlinien 2, 2791 Dragør.
