Introduction to Frederiksberg

Frederiksberg has 95.596 inhabitants (number as of April 09) on a rather small area of 8.77 square kilomtres.

If you're interested in the history of Frederiksberg, the local City Archives has written a comprehensive introduction.

The current mayor of the city is Jørgen Glenthøj of the Conservative Party. He succeeded Mads Lebech in January 2009.

The City Council of Frederiksberg has 25 members with the Mayor as the Chairman.

Six parties are represented in the City Council:
The Danish Conservative Party - 14
The Danish Social Democrats - 5
The Socialist Peoples Party - 2
The Danish Red-Green Alliance - 2
The Danish Social-Liberal Party - 1
Venstre, Denmark's Liberal Party - 1

You can find more information about the members of the council, including which commitees they belong to, on the website of the municipality (in Danish). There is also a chart of the political organization (in English).

Twice a year, in April and November, new citizens are invited to City Hall for a day of fesitivities. Program and date will be announced on Finfo.
