Norwegian traditions
Norwegian traditions are deeply rooted in the country's history and culture. One of the most significant celebrations is 17th May, known as Constitution Day, which marks the signing of Norway's constitution in 1814. On this day, Norwegians wear traditional clothing called bunad and participate in parades, showcasing their national pride.
Another important tradition is the celebration of Christmas, which includes unique customs such as the julebord (Christmas party) and the preparation of special foods like lutefisk and riskrem. Families often gather to celebrate with festive decorations and exchange gifts, reflecting the warmth of Norwegian community spirit during the holiday season.
