Fehmarnbelt tunnel - Summer 2022

This is a historic construction project that we are currently witnessing in Rødbyhavn. Scandinavia and Central Europe will be united, and construction can be followed at close range when visiting Lalandia. An information centre has also been established in Rødbyhavn to provide more information on the project. A beach park and green recreational areas just as few hundred metres from Lalandia are also in the pipeline.

A fixed link over the Fehmarnbelt will reduce travel times for motorists to 10 minutes compared to the current 45-minute sailing time (plus waiting time), while train passengers will be able to cover the stretch in a mere 7 minutes.

The tunnel will be open all year round, as the weather has no effect on the tunnel. The link, including two artificial peninsulas, will be around 19 kilometres long, with the combined car and train tunnel being around 17.6 kilometres long. That is three times longer than the current world record set by the Trans-Bay Tube Bart Tunnel in San Francisco, USA.

In tandem with construction of the Fehmarnbelt Fixed Link, a beach park will be built only a few hundred metres from Lalandia in Rødbyhavn. The park will be 3.5 kilometres long and 400-500 metres wide and will offer activities and recreational opportunities for people of all ages.

Rødbyhavn will more than double in size during the six-year construction phase, as around 2,500 ”tunnel builders&rdquo and 500 specialists from all round the world will work on the link. In addition, a large number of construction tourists are expected to visit the area looking to experience construction at close quarters.

A newly-constructed factory east of Rødbyhavn will see 79 standard sections constructed in reinforced concrete. The factory has eight production lines; each of these will cast one tunnel section every nine weeks. The component factory covers the same area as 420 football pitches, and up to 10-metre high earthworks will be constructed around the factory to prevent noise problems.

At the end of the Thirty Years’ War in 1644, two bulwarks were built in the area that is today part of Lalandia. Their purpose was to defend the entrance to Rødby Fjord. The two bulwarks, called the northern bulwark and the southern bulwark, were built on separate promontories in Rødby Fjord with about 500 metres between them. It is believed that the bulwarks were only used once. The location was not appropriate, as the firing range of contemporary cannons could not cover either the entrance at Dragsminde or Rødby town – and could not fire on enemy ships at the Battle of Fehmarn at all.

The bulwarks could only just protect the entrance to the fjord arm that lay behind. Here Danish ships could lie protected by the cannons on the bulwarks. It is assumed that it was a kind of naval port, to which many soldiers came. As Rødby could not accommodate that many soldiers, the ships were used as night lodgings until the soldiers could be deployed. The wreck of the Danish warship Delmenhorst, which was part of the Danish-Norwegian joint fleet under Christian IV, was found west of Rødbyhavn. It is assumed that they had tried to sail as close to the southern bulwark as possible in order to summon help from land.

Today, only the northern bulwark remains. It is surrounded by footpaths in a green area behind the holiday homes in the direction of Bredfjed. The southern bulwark that was located on the site of the holiday homes on road 8 (Digestien L167 + L168) was flattened as part of the construction of the dike in 1873. At the same time, Rødby Fjord was dammed, and today fields and holiday homes cover a large part of the area.
