Tectonic map of Europe

The Carlsberg Fault zone is a concealed tectonic formation that runs across Copenhagen city centre,[1] a side branch of the Trans-European Suture Zone. It is one of the most significant faults in the Copenhagen area[2] being 400 to 700 meters wide and can be followed for about 30 km.[3] It runs just east of the Frederiksberg Gardens in Copenhagen.[4][5] The Frederiksberg Municipality collects about half of its water from the fault zone.[6]

The Carlsberg Fault is located in a NNW-SSE striking fault system in the border zone between the Danish Basin and the Baltic Shield.[1][7] Recent earthquakes indicate that this area is tectonically active.[1]

It was described for the first time in 1925 at the Carlsberg Breweries.[3]
