Falsters Virke

Falsters Virke is a semi-circular Iron Age defensive earthwork from the Late Iron Age (AD 400–800) located in Hannenov Forest in central Falster. The structure encloses an area of approximately 1 km² and is one of the largest prehistoric fortifications in Denmark. In his chronicle, Saxo records that the Falstrians repelled a Wendish siege here in 1158. The earthwork has boardwalks and information signs and is open year-round. Parking at the Virketvej/Hannenovvej junction.
