Need help with a wappen...

holgerdanske

New member
Hej, everyone. Sort of a newbie at this. Can anyone help me identify this one? Seems I've seen it before, but...

It may be a sjælden Politibetjent Wappen.

I think only a true Dane would use the name Holgerdanske. It's quite a legend and one I'm proud of. Goddag Holger, and welcome to the forum.

I have family in Holbæk and have visited the castle in Helsingør several times.

Skøl! (as our friend K-B would say)

Chas.
 
Tak for velkomnen og hjælpen. Jeg er ikke dansk men min kone er det. Kronborg slot ligger i Helsingør og er meget flot. Jeg var der i december sidste år. Holger og jeg drak os fulde sammen og angreb Sverige. Det var sjov!
 
Hi Otto:

I'm afraid Zaphod's powers of translation may not include Dansk (Danish).

Permit me.

"Thank you for the welcome and the help. I am not Danish, but my wife is. Kronborg Castle in Helsingør is very beautiful. I was there last year in December. Holger and I got drunk together and attacked Sweden. It was fun!"

For those not in the know, Holger Danske is the guardian angel of Denmark. His resides in statue form in the casemates of Kronborg Castle (Kronborg is the site of Shakespeare's Hamlet, though it was called Elsinore in the play).

For more information on that Holger:

Hej Holgerdanske:

De bedste hilsner!

Chas.

Hey,
There will be no attacking the Swedes, unless you bring beer.
