Guldborg is a fishing village spanning the islands of Falster and Lolland in Guldborgsund Municipality, Region Zealand, in Denmark. The village is located at the narrowest point between the two islands where Guldborg Bridge crosses Guldborgsund (or Guldborg) Sound. In 2025 the village had a population of 495, with about 400 living on Lolland.

==History== Guldborg was first documented as a ferry village in 1569. During the Second Northern War (1657–1660), embankments were built along the shore but this did not prevent the Swedes from conquering Lolland in 1658 and attempting to overcome the rest of Denmark.
