Askø is a Danish island north of Lolland. It covers an area of 2.82 km2 and has 55 permanent inhabitants (as of 1 January 2005) as well as hundreds of summer vacation properties. It is connected to the neighbouring island of Lilleø by a 700 metre long dam,[2] which was constructed in 1914. Askø is connected to Bandholm on Lolland by ferry.
In 1954, there were 170 inhabitants and one vehicle.[3]
In 2014 energy company SEAS-NVE discovered a Neolithic boat in a submerged settlement as it replaced sea cables by Askø Island.[4] The boat had split and sealing mass consisting of a strip of bark and resin was found in the hole.
