Shopping in Køge
Køge has a long history as a market town, and the natural harbour and strategic
location has been a big part of it.
The town's history dates back to 1288, and it was a contrast to Roskilde, the
religious center at that time.
The old town centre is well-preserved, which the many half timbered houses confirms.
Køge is also a part of Copenhagen's metropolitan area. It offers easy transportation
to the center of Copenhagen by the E line of the S-train commuter rail system.
