"Draumkvedet" ("The Dream Poem") is a Norwegian visionary poem, probably dated from the late medieval age, and is one of the best known medieval ballads in Norway.
The first written versions are from Lårdal and Kviteseid in Telemark (Norway) in the 1840's.
The protagonist, Olav Åsteson, falls asleep on Christmas Eve and sleeps until the twelfth day of Christmas. He wakes, and rides to church to recount his dreams to the congregation about his journey through the afterlife.
- This visionary poem ‘Draumkvedet’ never ceases to fascinate us.
