  Amager - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Danish capital, Copenhagen, is partly situated on Amager, which is connected to Zealand by several bridges.
The reclaimed area is currently known as Kalvebod Fælled, and was originally a military area, but today it is part of a major construction area called the Ørestad, being thought of as an extension to central Copenhagen.
The construction of the bridge has had a large impact on the physical geography of the island, largely due to the construction of new highways.
