1. Constitution Day

TRADITIONS

The Constitution of Norway was signed at Eidsvoll on 17 May 1814. The constitution declared Norway to be an independent kingdom in an attempt to avoid being ceded to Sweden after Denmark–Norway's devastating defeat in the Napoleonic Wars.

Constitution Day

Norwegian culture demands to start celebrating Christmas 4 weeks before the big day. Every Saturday up to December 25 locals light up a beautiful four-candle candelabra with the traditional Advent candles. Other peculiar Christmas traditions in Norway include decorating your home with the statues of nisser, a Scandinavian equivalent of a goblin, Christmas markets, dancing around the Christmas tree, and watching the classic British comedy called Dinner for One.
