I think Ptychoptera is right. Note folded wings (the origin of the genus name) and strong tibial spurs.

 Thank you Libor Smile I checked all Tipulidae of Denmark (Webpage of Pjotr Oosterbroek) but I couldn't find a similar one.
Also thank you John Smile - hoping that there is somebody who knows "my" Ptychoptera.

 Ptychoptera contaminata seems to be correct. Strong wing markings and the same abdominal pattern as shown in photos of females of that species.
