Encyclopedia > Falster

Falster is a Danish island. It includes Denmark's southernmost point, Gedser Odde.


It is connected to Zealand in the north by two bridges - the Farøbroerne is part of Euroroute E47 from Copenhagen (and Helsingborg) to Lübeck (and thence Hamburg and the south). The E47 continues via a tunnel to Lolland - there are also two bridges over the narrow Guldborgsund.


The area of the island is 514 km² and there are 43,537 inhabitants, over 40% of whom live in the principal town, Nykøbing Falster.

The Frigate Falster and Danish Frigate Design to 1746 (1877 words)
The loss of the Danish "frigate" Falster by fire, on the coast of Morocco in 1753, was one of the most notable occurrences in Danish naval history during the latter part of the 18th Century.
Therefore, the caliber of Falster's main battery armament was akin to that of a Danish battleship (albeit, the smallest of Danish battleships) rather than to that of a Danish frigate.
The Falster did not meet that arbitrary cut-off minimum requirement, and was thus relegated to the next available category of warship classification, that of a frigate, the typical characteristics of which Falster had nothing in common.
