Puttgarden

Puttgarden has served as a ferry port in Schleswig-Holstein since 1963. On Fehmarn’s northern coast, it faces the Fehmarn Belt, the Baltic Sea strait separating Germany from Denmark. Ferries have long connected Puttgarden with Rødby on Lolland, making the settlement a familiar transit point on the route between Hamburg and Copenhagen. The harbour was developed for the Vogelfluglinie, the rail-and-road link named after the migratory bird route across the Baltic. Beyond terminals and tracks, Fehmarn is a low, windswept island of fields and beaches, with coastal paths and birdlife shaping its maritime character.
