Høsterkøb

Høsterkøb is a small village located in the Rudersdal Municipality of Denmark, in the Capital Region of Zealand. It is situated approximately 20 kilometers north of Copenhagen.

The area surrounding Høsterkøb is characterized by rolling hills, farmland, and forests. Søndersø, a lake popular for recreation and nature observation, is located nearby. Historically, the village has been an agricultural community, though today many residents commute to work in the greater Copenhagen area.

Høsterkøb Church (Høsterkøb Kirke) is a notable landmark in the village. It dates back to the medieval period and is known for its relatively simple Romanesque architecture.

The village's name, Høsterkøb, translates roughly to "harvester's purchase" or "autumn purchase." The origin of the name is likely related to historical agricultural practices and land transactions in the area.
