Birkerød
Birkerød () is a town in Rudersdal Municipality in the northern outskirts of Copenhagen, Denmark. It is surrounded by several lakes and small woodlands. Birkerød station is located on the Nordbanen, Hillerød radial of the S-train suburban network. History The parish of Birkerød contained the villages Birkerød, Kajerød, Bistrup, Ravnsnæs, Isterød, Høsterkøb, Sandbjerg and Ubberød. Birkerød became a railway town in 1868, when the Nordbanen railway opened a station here between Lyngby and Helsingør. This led to new growth and several brickyards opened in the area in the second half of the 19th century. The rail line between Copenhagen and Hillerød was later converted to an S-train suburban line and construction of new residential neighbourhoods accelerated in the 1940s which, in time, made Birkerød merge with Bistrup to the south, Kajerød to the west and Ravnsnæs to the east. Geography Birkerød is bordered by 941-hectare Furesø (lake), Lake Furesø to the south ...

Høsterkøb
Høsterkøb is a village in Rudersdal Municipality, some north of central Copenhagen, Denmark. It is bounded on the south by Rude Forest and on the north by open fields. Etymology The name is derived from ''Husfrecop''. The first part of the name means ''hustru'' ("wife") while the suffix ''-køb'', which is only seen in toponyms from the north of Zealand and Scania, means "purchased land" ("købt jord"). Høsterkøb thus means "land purchased by (a) wife". History The village was probably founded some time during the transition between the Viking Age and the Middle Ages (900–1100). It is first recorded in a letter from 1186 where Pope Urban III thinks Bishop Absalon for giving it to Roskilde bishopric. It is also mentioned in the Roskilde Bishopric Census Book (''Roskildebispens jordebog'') from 1370. The area was administrated from Hjortholm Castle at Furesøen in Frederiksdal After the Reformation, when the Crown confiscated all land owned by the Church, Høsterkøb came ...
