'''Fehmarn''' ({{IPA|de|ˈfeːma⁠ʁn|lang|De-Fehmarn.ogg}}; {{langx|da|Femern}}; from Old [[Wagri]]an [[Slavic languages|Slavic]] "''Fe More''", meaning "''In the Sea''") is an island in the [[Baltic Sea]], off the eastern coast of [[Germany]]'s northernmost state of [[Schleswig-Holstein]]. It is Germany's third-largest island, after [[Rügen]] and [[Usedom]]. Fehmarn is separated from the German peninsula of [[Wagria]] in [[Holstein]] by the Fehmarn Sound, and from the southern [[Denmark|Danish]] island of [[Lolland]] by the [[Fehmarn Belt]]. It is connected to the Holsatian mainland by the [[Fehmarn Sound Bridge]]. The island belongs to the district of [[Ostholstein]] (East Holstein). The closest larger towns on the mainland are [[Heiligenhafen]] (''Saints’ Harbor'') and [[Oldenburg in Holstein]] (founded as ''[[Starigard]]''). Right opposite Fehmarn, on the tip of the Wagrian Peninsula, is [[Großenbrode]].

The [[Vogelfluglinie]] (Danish: Fugleflugtslinjen), an important [[transport corridor]] connecting the Danish capital of [[Copenhagen]] on the island of [[Zealand]] to the second-largest German city of [[Hamburg]] via [[Lübeck]], runs across the island. There are currently two tunnels under construction in the region: the [[Fehmarn Belt Tunnel]] between [[Puttgarden]] on Fehmarn and [[Rødbyhavn]] on Lolland, and the [[Fehmarn Sound Tunnel]] between Strukkamp (Fehmarn) and Großenbrode ([[Wagria]]). The most notable settlements on Fehmarn are Burg auf Fehmarn ([[Low German]]: ''Borg op Fehmarn'') and Puttgarden, with the island's ferry port.

Fehmarn is [[Allegory|allegorically]] represented by the "Goldene Krone im blauen Meer" (''Golden Crown in the blue Sea''), which can be seen on many flags on the island, making reference to the [[House of Oldenburg]], the Danish royal house.
