Kløvermarken is the last undeveloped section of Christianshavns Fælled, which used to serve as a military training area. The name Kløvermarken is first seen in 1847.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.denstoredanske.dk/Danmarks_geografi_og_historie/Danmarks_historie/K%C3%B8benhavns_historie/Kl%C3%B8vermarken|title=Kløvermarken|publisher=Gyldendal|access-date=2012-09-20}}</ref> At that time the area reached all the way to the Øresund coast where the Stricker Battery had been constructed in 1801 as the most southernly point on [[Fortifications of Copenhagen|Copenhagen's fortifications]]. It was expanded in 1875&ndash;76 but decommissioned in 1914 and removed in 1965 to make way for.

In 1925, the civilian flights moved to the new [[Copenhagen Airport]] a little further down the coast, at [[Kastrup]], and a couple of years later they were joined by the military activities.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kobenhavnshistorie.dk/bog/kko/k/kko_k-14.html|title=Kløvermarken|language=da|publisher=Selskabet for Københavns Historie|access-date=2012-09-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160718035316/http://kobenhavnshistorie.dk/bog/kko/k/kko_k-14.html|archive-date=2016-07-18|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In 2005, in response to Lord Mayor [[Ritt Bjerregaard]]'s launching of an affordable homes campaign, the architectural firm Plot, founded by [[Bjarke Ingels]] and [[Julien De Smedt]], proposed to build a giant 3&nbsp;km perimeter block around the edge of Kløvermarken to deal with the problem of housing shortage without compromising its role as a recreational space. The block would bend and curve around existing club houses and other buildings while large arches would create connections to the surrounding areas, and the height of the building would vary in respect to neighbors and views to the historic skyline of the city, creating a Great Wall of roof gardens and terraces. The proposal which in this way wanted to add 3,000 apartments without sacrificing a single football field won initial support at the City Hall but was met with public protests and later given up.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dr.dk/Regioner/Kbh/Nyheder/Politik/2006/09/02/081837.htm?rss=true&regional|title=SF skifter kurs: Boliger på Kløvermarken|language=da|publisher=DR|access-date=2012-09-20}}</ref> The area was preserved in May 2012.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://magasinetkbh.dk/node/1141|title=Kløvermarken er fredet
