During the period 1618–1623, he erected earthen embarkments with five <a href="/wiki/Bastion" title="Bastion">bastions</a> in the marshy area between Copenhagen and the island of <a href="/wiki/Amager" title="Amager">Amager</a>. At the same time the idea was hatched of creating a new merchant town in the area. In 1639 the little merchant and fortress town of Christianshavn was established. However, competition from Copenhagen soon proved too strong for the little town, and by 1674 it was incorporated into its larger neighbour. </p><p>The fortifications were further developed with six more bastions in the 1660s, and seven more bastions between 1682 and 1692. Additional reinforcements occurred between 1779 and 1791, and again in 1810–1813. Even though the fortifications around the Inner City were being dismantled in the late 19th century, Christianshavn's fortifications continued in use into the 20th century. Some areas were opened up in the late 1910s-1920s, and the final areas were made public space in 1961. </p><p>The fortifications are a part of the total fortification system around the old part of Copenhagen, and are one of Denmark's best preserved fortifications from the 17th century. Today the area around the fortifications is a park area. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Christianshavn_today">Christianshavn today</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Christianshavn&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Christianshavn today"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Christianshavns_Kanal_morning.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cf/Christianshavns_Kanal_morning.jpg/200px-Christianshavns_Kanal_morning.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="133" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cf/Christianshavns_Kanal_morning.jpg/300px-Christianshavns_Kanal_morning.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/cf/Christianshavns_Kanal_morning.jpg/400px-Christianshavns_Kanal_morning.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2400" data-file-height="1599" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Christianshavns_Kanal" title="Christianshavns Kanal">Christianshavns Kanal</a> separating Christianshavn in a City Side and a Rampart Side part</figcaption></figure> <p>Christianshavn is a lively, primarily residential area.
