WHAT DOES ESBJERG MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Esbjerg

Esbjerg

Esbjerg is a seaport town and seat of Esbjerg Municipality on the west coast of the Jutland peninsula in southwest Denmark. By road it is 71 kilometres west of Kolding and 164 kilometres southwest of Aarhus. With a population of 71,618, it is the fifth-largest city in Denmark, and the largest in west Jutland. Before it was decided to establish a harbour there in 1868, the area consisted of only a few farms. Esbjerg developed quickly with the population rising to 13,000 by 1901 and 70,000 by 1970. In addition to its fishing and shipping activities, it also became an important centre for agricultural exports. More recently, tourism has developed in the region. Not only does Esbjerg have several notable museums and entertainment venues, it is also increasingly recognized for its university facilities and sporting activities. Over the years, many of the city's visitors have been attracted by the ferry link to Harwich in England which is now scheduled to close in September 2014. The harbour facilities are however being expanded to answer the needs of the wind-turbine industry and container shipping traffic.
