About Utterslev
Where to stay in Utterslev
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Utterslev Torv is the square the neighbourhood is built around, and anyone booking near it is choosing a residential corner of Bispebjerg over the Copenhagen centre, with Utterslev Mose for the morning walk. Hotels are not part of it. Søborgmagle Kirke and Nordvestkirken are the two named doors, and Gladsaxe Municipality begins where the marsh does.
About Utterslev
What are the main landmarks in Utterslev?
Søborgmagle Kirke and Nordvestkirken are the built names, while Utterslev Mose does the real drawing, wetland running across the boundary that Copenhagen shares with Gladsaxe Municipality to the north. Utterslev Torv holds the centre. Beyond it the marsh is what carries the name outside Bispebjerg.
What is the history of Utterslev?

The square carries the name. Utterslev Mose keeps the older ground, marshland straddling what is now the boundary with Gladsaxe Municipality, while Søborgmagle Kirke and Nordvestkirken stand among the built names on the Copenhagen side.
Where is Utterslev?
