Dragestil (Dragon Style) is a style of design and architecture that originated in Norway and was widely used principally between 1880 and 1910. It is principally based on ancient ruins from the Vikings and their mythology.

Dragestil architecture: Inspired from the Vikings Dragesteil architectural style originated and was used in 1880 and 1910, in Norway. The two architectural styles, National Romantic Style and Romantic Nationalism were the variants of this architectural style. The architecture of Scandinavia, mixed with the artwork of Viking and medieval tribes were the inspirations for Dragestil Architectural Style. The historical remains from where this architectural style evolved were from Stave churches, Tune, Gostad, and Oseberg ships. This style has a lot of artwork inspired by Norse mythology such as carvings of serpents and dragons. This style was practiced in the modern era by architect Holm Hansen Munthe along with Balthazar Lange. In the modern era, the architecture of stave churches with dragon and serpent motif was then blended with modern architecture by architect Holm Hansen Munthe along with Balthazar Lange. Holm Hansen Munthe one of the pioneers of Dragestil architecture. This architectural style is also known as dragon style for its carvings. During his practice, he designed a few churches, schools, and restaurants in Oslo. Few of these buildings later got burnt and were rebuilt. This was a vacation house for Emperor Wilhelm of Germany. Holm H. Munthe got this project after Wilhelm had visited Oslo. Munthe designed this project in Dragestil style, with the help of Ole Sverre. This was completed based on Norwegian style, where he imported all the construction materials and workers from Norway. This later turned out to be private property for Wilhelm, post World War I. After the second world war ended, this property was demolished. Now, it is considered a historic monument and is rebuilt in Kaliningrad’s Central Park.

I så fall vil jeg ha dragestil. På absolutt alt.

Riv Slottet, Stortinget, alle universitetene og skolene og bygg opp igjen i dragestil.

One of the titles from #2025 that I enjoyed:

Vi ankommer Hakadal stasjon. Stasjonsbygningen, tegnet av arkitekt Paul Due, ble reist i 1900 i dragestil. Stasjonen åpnet to år før hele Gjøvikbanen sto ferdig.

Stasjonen åpnet under navnet Hakedal, men skiftet navn til Hakadal i 1922.

A rare antique c. 1900 handmade 830 silver Dragestil Saint George and the Dragon design brooch pin by the firm of David Andersen of Norway. Dragestil was a style peculiar to Norway in the late 19th to early 20th centuries, and features historical religious and mythological subject matter. The design features Saint George on horseback, and you can just make out the head of the dragon behind him in the top left corner of the brooch. The central subject is very rough and no doubt was based upon an ancient relic or architectural fragment found in Norway. The brooch measures a petite 1-1/4" diameter and weighs 15.9 grams total. Marked at back with the earliest David Andersen maker mark in use from 1888 to 1930, also marked "830S" for 830 silver which was the most common standard for silver in Norway at that time. Excellent antique condition. An intricate vintage 1960s 70s handmade bronze Dragestil revival Norse Mythology pendant necklace by Sigmund Espeland of Norway, and from their Snorre Bronse line of jewelry. Sigmund Espeland AS at Årnes is well-known for their hand-crafted high-quality gold, bronze and silver jewelry. This pendant is an intricate design of intertwined twin serpent-dog creatures that no doubt reference the ancient Norse legend of Jormungandr and Ragnarok. Jörmungandr is the Midgard Serpent (also World Serpent) in Norse mythology who encircles the realm of Midgard (earth). He is the son of the god Loki and the giantess Angrboda and brother of the great wolf Fenrir and Hel, Queen of the Dead. At Ragnarök, the Twilight of the Gods, he slays and is slain by the god Thor. I'm not sure if there are supposed to be two of this particular legendary creature, or if he just has two heads. In any case, an extremely detailed and attractive design, and hanging on a lovely matching bronze adjustable neckring that will fit most necks. The pendant measures 2" wide by 1.5" tall. As noted above, the neckring is easily adjusted to fit most necks, and presently fits up to about an 18" neck. The pendant is marked as shown, "Snorre Bronse S.E." The neckring is unmarked. Excellent vintage condition. An antique circa 1900 handmade 830 silver Dragestil Saint George and the Dragon design brooch by Norwegian artisan Henrik Moller (1858-1937) of Trondheim. The Dragestil style is a variant of Arts and Crafts/Art Nouveau, and has elements of Viking and medieval art from Scandinavia. The design references the Christian allegory of Saint George vanquishing the Dragon, with the Dragon representing sin or evil. This story is originally from the 11th century CE, and was widely disseminated throughout the Christian world during the Medieval times. Moller's work is quite rare and hard to find, and this is an especially rare example that I haven't seen before. Measures 1-3/8" diameter, and weighs 0.4 ounce or about 12 grams total. Marked at back as shown, "Trondheim H. Moller 830". Excellent antique condition.

Norway went through that phase - Dragestil between 1880 and 1910.

There's a few in Balestrand, but they're all over.

Absolutt!

Om jeg noensinne får bygget meg hus, skal det være i dragestil. Det har jeg vært bevisst på i over 30 år.

Det huset jeg syntes var det fineste i verden i barndommen, et skikkelig eventyrhus i dragestil, lafta tømmer med blyglassvinduer, ble revet og nå står det åtte beige rekkehusleiligheter der. I går så jeg trønderlåna lenger bort - flyttet dit fra Innherred på 60-tallet - holder på å rives.

Med egenartede stilretninger som sveitserstil og dragestil kom de til å påvirke den lokale byggeskikken i mange tiår etterpå.

Men stasjonsutformingene påvirket ikke bare lokale bygninger i Østerdalen.

Derfor ble så godt som alle stavkirkeportaler «brutalt» modifisert, det var ikke tid eller ressurser til å gjøre det pent. under bilde av portaler på Historisk museum
detaljert Utskåren treplate (del av portal fra stavkirke) med hvit bakgrunn. Høyre side av platen viser tegn på at platen er skavet av og et større stykket er skåret ut, tydeligvis for å feste et fengsel høy treplate utskåren i dragestil. (del av portal til stavkirke) hvit bakgrunn , kunstig belysning. venstre side av utskjæring ser ut til å fått en stor bit skåret vekk vertikalt

Jeg trøster meg med at jeg er så priviligert at jeg bor i et område hvor det fremdeles er noen gamle villaer i dragestil. Det er nok det nærmeste jeg kommer.

Jeg er ikke noe tilhenger av den altså. Enten kan det være modernisme eller full dragestil!

Da er det verdt å huske på når Hamsun skrev sine beste bøker.

Ta gjerne en tur i villa-strøk i Oslo og let etter hus som ble bygget rett etter århundreskiftet. Dragestil og norrøn ornamentikk var svært vanlig.

1st pic is bg3 Sorcerer's sundries!
2nd and 3rd are dragestil style buildings. My main focus was the shape of the building, so I made curved lines for where the dragon heads are supposed to be instead of drawing them in.

From Stave Churches to Elsa’s Castle: Norse Design Through Time ❄️⛪
Viking heritage still shapes how we build & create; from stave churches (c.1000–1300), to Dragestil (1800-1900) to Disney’s 'Frozen'. Look forward to seeing what will be uploaded to the iViking app- official launch later this year 📱

Darling, there's a part of me
I'm afraid will always be
Trapped within an abstract from a moment of my life
The weeds up through the concrete
The traffic picking up speed
All my love and terror
Balanced there between those eyes

See how it shines
See how it shines
