HistoryThe peninsula was named by A.G. Nathorst on his 1899 expedition after Swedish Arctic explorer Salomon August Andrée, who had made an attempt to reach the North Pole by balloon in 1897. One of the aims of Nathorst's 1899 venture was to search for traces of the lost Andrée's Arctic Balloon Expedition, whose fate was unknown until 1930, when it became known that Andrée had crash-landed on the pack ice and died on Kvitøya.[1] The region was later visited and accurately mapped during Lauge Kocks expeditions to East Greenland. GeographyAndrée Land is located about 100 km inland from the Foster Bay of the Greenland Sea. It is bound by Kaiser Franz Joseph Fjord in the southeast, and two branches of it, the Isfjord in the SW and the Geologfjord in the NE. The peninsula is attached to the mainland on its northwestern side, with the Gerard De Geer Glacier in its western boundary, and the Adolf Hoels Glacier and Nunatak Glacier in the north. A number of valleys cut across the peninsula; the most important are the Grejsdalen in the middle, the Eremitdalen further north and the Rendalen in the west.[2] MountainsAndrée Land is mountainous. The highest point is {{convert|2360|m|abbr=on}} high Margaretatop, also known as Margarita Spids, located in the southern part. The Lacroix Mountains (Lacroix Bjerge) are a mountain range at the SW end rising above the Isfjord.[3] Arnold Escher Land is a nunatak group to the NW of Andrée Land. Some of the other noteworthy peaks are: {{div col|colwidth=30em}}
