Tuborg Havn

Tuborg Havn or Port of Tuborg is a marina and surrounding mixed-use neighbourhood in the Hellerup district of Copenhagen, Denmark. Located on a peninsula on the north side of Svanemølle Bay, just north of the border to Copenhagen Municipality, it is the result of a redevelopment of the former industrial site of Tuborg Breweries which ceased operations in 1996. The marina is operated by the Kongelig Dansk Yachtklub which also has their club house at the site. Other local landmarks include the Experimentarium science centre, the Waterfront shopping centre and the Saxo Bank headquarters. The port is located a 15 minutes walk from the S-trains stations Svanemøllen (south) or Hellerup (north).

The harbor was constructed between 1869 and 1873 at the initiative of H.P. Prior, a co-founder of DFDS. Construction began in 1869 and was completed in 1873. The Tuborg Breweries inaugurated their site the same year and would continue to dominate the area. Their activities also comprised a glassworks, a Sulfuric acid and a fertilizer plant. In 1919, Tuborg Breweries employed 142 blue collar workers and 1,242 blue collar workers. The harbor was expanded in 1929.

The harbor was also used as a berth for the ferries to Landskrona, Scania, Sweden, 70 minutes away. Between 1951 and 1980 the SL ferries used this route. And for a duration of eight months thereafter, also to Malmö) From 1985 to 1993 Scarlett Line operated the route to Landskrona again. Until 1990 summer traffic only, but from the spring of 1991 until autumn of 1993, ferries of superflex type and an older SL ferry ship departured from the port every hour. Between the late 1960s and 1976, the ferries between Helsingborg and Travemünde also called at Tuborg Havn on their way to Germany. But there was no service between Helsingborg and Tuborg, lorries and cars could on their southbound trips embark in either Helsingborg or Tuborg Havn, but only drive off in Germany. And vice versa for northbound trips.
