Bornholm (Bornholmsk: Borrinjholm) is a Danish island in the Baltic Sea, to the east of the rest of Denmark, south of Sweden, northeast of Germany and north of Poland. Occupying an area of 588.36 km² (227.17 sq mi), the island had a total population of 39,545 on January 1, 2022. The island is known as klippeøen (‘Rock Island’) because of its geology, which consists of granite, except along the southern coast. Its largest settlement is Rønne. Many inhabitants speak the Bornholmsk dialect, which is officially a dialect of Danish. Most inhabitants are members of the Lutheran Church of Denmark (Folkekirken).
