Jelling Monuments - UNESCO World Heritage Site
The Jelling Monuments UNESCO World Heritage site covers a group of three monuments from a significant period in Danish history. There's a pair of burial mounds for King Gorm the Old and his wife, the last pagan king and queen of Denmark. There's also a pair of rune stones, one of which contains the first written mention of the word Denmark within Denmark, and the other which has King Harald Bluetooth (Gorm's son), boasting about unifying Norway and Denmark, as well as bringing Christianity to his kingdom. The third monument is the oldest church in Denmark, where King Gorm the Old is still buried. What a fascinating spot!

The Jelling Monuments Review - Viking Rune Stones UNESCO World Heritage
The Jelling Monuments Review- Viking Town UNESCO World Heritage
Erected in 965 AD by the Viking King Harald Bluetooth after embracing Christianity. This historical event is recorded on rune stones to hail his achievements in uniting Denmark and Norway by bringing Christianity to the Danes.
Often regarded as Denmark's birth certificate, till this date the crucifix on the rune stone adorns all Danish passports.
Kind Harald also created two mighty royal barrows and a church on this site. Hundreds of white demarcations outline the world's largest ship setting, Viking longhouses and impressive stockade. In-between the royal barrows you will find a historic church and two 1000 year old rune stones displayed in illuminated bronze cabinets.
The Jelling monuments are among Europe's finest Viking Age monuments and enjoy UNESCO World Heritage patronage.
There is also a new Royal Jelling experience center which is free and let you experience Jelling the way it looked 1000 years ago.

Harald Bluetooth is responsible for making Denmark Christian, but there
are many rune stones throughout the country, giving clues about ancient
life. Some 1800 dolmen boulders are remnants of the stone age, and
burial sites date back 8 thousand years.

Jelling Mounds - World Heritage
About a thousand years ago, Jelling in Denmark used to be the residence of Viking kings. It was been established that King Gorm and later on his son and successor Harald Bluetooth ruled the country from Jelling. Some of the remains they left are the Jelling Mounds.
The church and the burial mounds have still not revealed all their secrets.
Officially designated by UNESCO as World Heritage Site, this site is to be safeguarded for the future as a testimony to its enduring past.

Königreich Dänemark - Das Königshaus
Das Königshaus der Dänen gehört zu den ältesten der Welt und trotzdem hat es was mit einer sehr modernen Technologie zu tun. Dazu aber später.
Erstmal zur Geschichte. Die Wurzeln der dänischen Monarchie reichen bis zu den Wikingern. Seit dem Jahr 965 hat das vereinigte Dänemark einen König, und zwar einen, der sich zum Christentum bekennt - Harald den 1. Blauzahn von Gormsen. Das hat er in Jelling sogar in Stein gemeißelt.
Die Linie zu Harald ist bis heute nicht abgerissen, auch die aktuellen Royals stammen noch von ihm ab. Stichwort Gegenwart: Heute ist Königin Margrethe die 2. die Wichtigste im Schloss. Sie sitzt seit 1972 auf dem Thron und ist mit Prinzgemahl Henrik von Dänemark verheiratet. Ihre beiden Söhne sind Kronprinz Frederik und Prinz Joachim, beide haben Maries geheiratet und jeweils vier Kinder.
Ganz schön groß die Königsfamilie... und ziemlich beliebt: Um die 80 Prozent der Dänen schätzen ihre Monarchen. Gerade Königin Margrethe ist wegen ihrer Bodenständigkeit beliebt beim Volk.
Apropos Volk: In Schloss Christiansborg ist das dänische Parlament, das Folketing, untergebracht. Die dänische Monarchie ist nämlich eine parlamentarische konstitutionelle Monarchie, das heißt, die Königin ist zwar das Staatsoberhaupt, die Gesetzte macht aber das Parlament.
Und nun die Auflösung, was das dänische Königshaus mit der Moderne zu tun hat. Urvater der Dänen, Harald der 1., hatte eine ganz bestimmte Fähigkeit: er konnte Fraktionen völlig unterschiedlicher Lager zur Kommunikation bewegen. Das ist der Grund, warum die Bluetooth-Technologie, die eine kabellose Kommunikation ermöglicht, nach ihm benannt ist. Nicht schlecht, Blauzahn!
Modern Danish Vikings Sailing on the San Francisco Bay
Join me on a beautiful trip through the San Francisco Bay. Admire the East Bay & Golden Gate bridges. Look for the dolphins, and watch just how masterfully I handle the ship (with Morten, our Captain's superb supervision, of course).
A special 'Thank You' to Morten for the trip, and to Karen Segal for the beautiful music.
(Also, thank you to Anja for filming me during my big moment!) :)

The Secrets of the Vikings
Kongernes Jelling is the story of The Secrets of the Danish Viking. In the tenth century the kings Gorm the Old and Harold Bluetooth created a monument. The oldest feature is the remains of a huge ship-shaped stone setting - then came the rune stones and the mounds, and finally the palisade.
Gorm the Old's rune stone links the royal couple Gorm and Thyra to a kingdom called Denmark. The story continues on Harold Bluetooth's rune stone, which describes a central event in the history of Denmark: the King's acceptance of Christianity on behalf of his whole people. For that reason the stone is often called Denmark's Certificate of Baptism.
