Viking Raven Flag – Hrafnsmerki

The Viking raven flag (Hrafnsmerki) was one of the most powerful banners of the Viking Age, flown in battle by kings and chieftains to invoke divine favor. This reconstruction is based on the legendary banner of King Knud the Great, who ruled over Denmark, England, and Norway in the 11th century.

According to the sagas, the raven banner foretold the outcome of battle: if the raven appeared with wings spread and beak open, victory was assured; if it hung limp and lifeless, defeat was near. Can you see the raven?

Now you can own a striking Viking flag inspired by this legendary emblem of war and destiny.
