Scyld the Sheaf-Child from scourging foemen,From raiders a-many their mead-halls wrested.He lives to be feared, the first has a waif,Puny and frail he was found on the shore.He grew to be great, and was girt with powerTill the border-tribes all obeyed his rule,And sea-folk hardy that sit by the whale-pathGave him tribute, a good king was he.[1]
Lejre Land of Legends was first established in 1964 as an experimental hub for history and archaeology. The 'Kings Hall' will be the new centerpiece of the attraction, which is open each summer for visitors to see a reconstructed 'working' Viking village.
At Roskilde (25 minutes by train from Copenhagen), the UNESCO World Heritage Roskilde Cathedral has been the final resting place for Danish royalty since the 15th century. The building dates from the 12th and 13th century and was Scandinavia's first gothic cathedral. With its strategic location at the base of the Roskilde Fjord the town was a key location in Viking times. At the town's Viking Ship Museum a permanent exhibition includes the remains of five original 11th century Viking ships that were recovered from the sea bed in 1962, in a location 20km north of Roskilde. The recovered pieces of the submerged ships revealed them to be five different types of Skuldelev ships that were allegedly deliberately sunk to protect the lower part of the fjord from the risk of attack by sea.
The area is filled with reference to ancient Danish history. Such as the legend of the Norse God Odin who sent Denmark's first king, King Skjold, to the area. His name is the basis of the ancient Danish kings who are known as Skjoldungerne (i.e children of Skjold). The epic old English poem, Beowulf is set in the Skjoldungernes Land and tells the story of how Beowulf came to visit an ancient Danish king in the area.
Skjöldr (Latinized as Skioldus, sometimes Anglicized as Skjold or Skiold) was among the first legendary Danish kings. He is mentioned in the Prose Edda, in Ynglinga saga, in Chronicon Lethrense, in Sven Aggesen's history, in Arngrímur Jónsson's Latin abstract of the lost Skjöldunga saga and in Saxo Grammaticus' Gesta Danorum. Under the name Scyld he also appears in the Old English poem Beowulf. The various accounts have little in common.
Skjöldr is the son of Odin and the first king of Denmark who now lives as a disembodied spirit. He occasionally sends Erik to the Red Wasteland and takes control of his body to wreak havoc on the internet. Skjöldr is a loyal disciple of the goddess Helja. He is also enjoys telling short stories from his childhood and is the host of Skjöldr's Scary Stories.
In antiquity, Skjöldr unified Denmark and was crowned its first king by Odin in the 5th century. In the year 500 AD, Skjöldr died in battle fighting the Goths in Reidogotaland. At this time he was met by Helja, and she offered him eternal life in exchange for his soul. Skjöldr accepted and became Helja's loyal servant, promising to spread chaos on which she could feed. The chaos he created allowed Helja to produce a daughter between them that would continue Skjöldr's bloodline.
In Nationalpark Skjoldungernes Land you can find different landscapes, consisting of meadows, fields, woods, watercourses, bogs and lakes. The path west of Gammel Lejre takes you past the excavated Kongehaller, which were used for celebrations and ceremonies during the Iron Age and Viking period. If you walk down the path east of Gammel Lejre, you pass a 100-metre long ship setting that was used as a burial place in the 900s. The ship settings got their name because the stones surrounding the burial place form a ship shape. Skjoldungerne (the Scyldings) is, according to the sagas, the first Danish royal family, and descendants of the first king at Lejre, King Skjold (Scyld). Skjoldungerne has given their name to Nationalpark Skjoldungernes Land.
According to written sources from the middle ages, it was in the area surrounding Lejre Museum, that the birth of the Danish realm took place. It is here, you find the first line of Danish kings, Skjoldungerne, who, according to the legend, had their base during the Iron Age and the Viking Age in Denmark (500-1000 A.C.). 350c69d7ab
