House of Harald

The House of Harald was a Danish royal dynasty founded by King Harald Bluetooth in the late 10th century. It played a central role in Denmark's history, unifying the country, adopting Christianity, and establishing a lasting royal lineage. The dynasty included notable kings like Sweyn and Canute the Great, who expanded influence beyond Denmark into England and other parts of Europe. The House of Harald held the Danish throne for centuries, shaping the nation’s political and cultural development, and its members are ancestors of modern Danish royalty.
