The oldest national flag in the world still in use.

According to legend, the flag came into Danish possession during the Battle of Lyndanisse in 1219. The Danes were on a failing crusade in Estonia, but after praying to God a flag fell from the sky. After this event, Danish King Valdemar II went on to defeat the Estonians.

At mindes de faldne og deres kamp med respekt og vĂŠrdighed er vigtigt.
At samles om Dannebrog er en mÄde at vise, at vi ikke har glemt.

Det gĂžr mig dog ogsĂ„ trist, at se mange offentlige institutioner i dag ikke flager pĂ„ halvt frem til middag – som traditionen foreskriver.
Det burde vĂŠre en selvfĂžlge.

All aboard the only slightly delayed #DSB IC3 worm #train to Aalborg. Todays destination is the sand kingdom of Skagen!!

I'm using the #Danish miniversion of the #deutschlandticket, the eight day summer only #rejsepas (it includes all public transport, incl. long distance trains) as I bought one for this weeks worktrip to the Copenhagen area.

Btw. Missed opportunity to call this Danepass or simply #dannebrog

The pass is still available, fancy a trip? 399 DKK @ dsb.dk/rejsepas/

1219: WĂ€hrend der Schlacht von Lyndanise (heute Tallinn), bei der König Waldemar II. und das dĂ€nische Heer gegen die heidnischen Esten kĂ€mpfen, fĂ€llt der Sage zufolge der #Dannebrog đŸ‡©đŸ‡°, die Flagge DĂ€nemarks, vom Himmel und ermöglicht den DĂ€nen den Sieg; damit entsteht die Ă€lteste Staatsflagge der Welt.

On the coastal cycle path en route đŸšŽâ€â™‚ïž to Elsinore. There’s a cluster of old fisherman’s cottages by the sea all flying đŸ‡©đŸ‡° – it’s not an official ‘flag day’ so could be a local celebration of a birthday, anniversary or wedding. Danes use their flag at celebrations as well as using it to express their love and pride for their own country.

Copenhagen Central Station proudly flying the Danish national flag – independent Denmark’s southern neighbour is Europe’s economic powerhouse, yet the Danes prosper without the need for a political union with Germany.
