New Canal Harbour

The municipality of Nykobing Falster, Denmark is building a new canal harbour which will form a new part of town with apartments, shops, restaurants and culture attractions.

The realization of the canal harbour which has been named Slotsbryggen means that Nykobing Falster to an even higher degree will benefit from its extraordinarily attractive position at the beautiful strait of Guldborgsund. The town is currently developing rapidly. For instance the municipality expects a growth of population as well as enlargement of the housing market. Around 130 apartments are planned for Slotsbryggen with the possibility of even more in the near future.

Slotsbryggen is a very important part of the municipal strategy for the continued development of the dynamic city. It creates an urban area with a beautiful waterfront which links the city centre to the water. Nice vantage points and promenades along the canal constitute essential and attractive features. The realization of the canal harbour creates the foundation for a varied and eventful citylife for instance in regard to cultural, recreational and maritime activities and much more.

Slotsbryggen is set to become a gateway for pleasure boats and sailing ships to the inner Danish waters. The construction of Slotsbryggen began in January 2004 and the canal harbour is expected to be completed by April 2006.
