Copenhagen is the capital and most populous city of Denmark. As of 1 January 2020, the city had a population of 794,128 with 632,340 in Copenhagen Municipality, 104,305 in Frederiksberg Municipality, 42,989 in Tårnby Municipality, and 14,494 in Dragør Municipality. It forms the core of the wider urban area of Copenhagen (population 1,330,993) and the Copenhagen metropolitan area (population 2,057,142). Copenhagen is situated on the eastern coast of the island of Zealand; another portion of the city is located on Amager, and it is separated from Malmö, Sweden, by the strait of Øresund. The Øresund Bridge connects the two cities by rail and road.
Originally a Viking fishing village established in the 10th century in the vicinity of what is now Gammel Strand, Copenhagen became the capital of Denmark in the early 15th century. Beginning in the 17th century, it consolidated its position as a regional centre of power with its institutions, defences and armed forces. During the renaissance the city served as the de facto capital being the seat of government of the Kalmar Union, governing the entire present day Nordic region in a personal union with Sweden and Norway ruled by the Danish monarch serving as the head of state. The city flourished as the cultural and economic center of Scandinavia under the union for well over 120 years, starting in the 15th century up until the beginning of the 16th century when the union was dissolved with Sweden leaving the union through a rebellion. After a plague outbreak and fire in the 18th century, the city underwent a period of redevelopment. This included construction of the prestigious district of Frederiksstaden and founding of such cultural institutions as the Royal Theatre and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. After further disasters in the early 19th century when Horatio Nelson attacked the Dano-Norwegian fleet and bombarded the city, rebuilding during the Danish Golden Age brought a Neoclassical look to Copenhagen's architecture. Later, following the Second World War, the Finger Plan fostered the development of housing and businesses along the five urban railway routes stretching out from the city centre.
Since the turn of the 21st century, Copenhagen has seen strong urban and cultural development, facilitated by investment in its institutions and infrastructure. The city is the cultural, economic and governmental centre of Denmark; it is one of the major financial centres of Northern Europe with the Copenhagen Stock Exchange. Copenhagen's economy has seen rapid developments in the service sector, especially through initiatives in information technology, pharmaceuticals and clean technology. Since the completion of the Øresund Bridge, Copenhagen has become increasingly integrated with the Swedish province of Scania and its largest city, Malmö, forming the Øresund Region. With a number of bridges connecting the various districts, the cityscape is characterised by parks, promenades and waterfronts. Copenhagen's landmarks such as Tivoli Gardens, The Little Mermaid statue, the Amalienborg and Christiansborg palaces, Rosenborg Castle Gardens, Frederik's Church, and many museums, restaurants and nightclubs are significant tourist attractions.

Située sur la côte orientale de l'île de Seeland, face au détroit d'Øresund qui sépare le Danemark de la Suède voisine, Copenhague est reliée à Malmö par le pont de l'Øresund. Son nom danois, København, déformation de Købmandshavn (« le port des commerçants »), rappelle sa position stratégique sur le Kattegat, à proximité immédiate de la mer Baltique.
Fondée au xe siècle par les Vikings, Copenhague est à l'origine un village de pêcheurs, fortifié en 1167. La ville devient la capitale du Royaume de Danemark dès le début du xve siècle. Au cours du xviie siècle, sous le règne du roi Christian IV, elle devient une des plus grandes villes d'Europe du Nord, renforçant son statut de capitale. Après avoir connu les ravages de la peste et de nombreux incendies au xviiie siècle, Copenhague voit se construire la vieille ville actuelle, et notamment le quartier de Frederiksstaden et des institutions comme le Théâtre royal danois ou l'Académie royale des beaux-arts. En partie détruite par les troupes de l'amiral Nelson lors de la bataille de Copenhague (1801), la ville est reconstruite dans un style néoclassique durant l'Âge d'or danois. L'urbanisme de Copenhague est rénové à la suite de la Seconde Guerre mondiale par le plan Finger , qui organise le développement industriel et urbain autour des cinq voies ferrées partant du centre-ville (Indre By).
