Hrefnesholt is a location in Beowulf where the Geatish king Hæþcyn had taken the Swedish queen. The Swedish king Ongenþeow arrived to save her and killed Hæþcyn.

A place by this name, Ramshult (the modern Swedish form), actually exists and it has a hillfort.

  • Hrefnesholt fue el nombre de una mítica fortaleza vikinga semilegendaria que aparece en el poema Beowulf, donde el rey de Götaland, Hæþcyn, tuvo retenida a la reina de los suiones durante una de las guerras entre suiones y gautas en el siglo VI. El rey sueco Ongenþeow logró rescatarla y matar a Hæþcyn, pero los refuerzos llegaron encabezados por Hygelac, asediando a los suecos en la fortaleza y venciendo a Ongenþeow que acabó muerto y Hygelac convirtiéndose en nuevo rey.​ Ramshult (la forma moderna del nombre en sueco) todavía existe y donde permanece una fortaleza; está emplazada en la isla de Orust, que perteneció al territorio de los gautas en aquellos tiempos según Nordisk familjebok.

  • Hrefnesholt è un luogo nell'opera Beowulf in cui il re dei Geati Hæþcyn aveva portato la regina dei Sueoni da lui rapita. Il re svedese Ongenþeow arrivò a salvarla e uccise Hæþcyn. L'esercito geato ebbe tuttavia rinforzi da Hygelac, mentre i Sueoni dovettero rifugiarsi in una fortezza, ma furono sbaragliati dai Geati. Ongenþeow fu ucciso e Hygelac divenne il nuovo re dei Geati. Un luogo chiamato Ramshult (la forma moderna del nome) esiste davvero ed ha una fortezza. Si trova sull'isola di Orust, che fu in territorio geato a quel tempo secondo il Nordisk familjebok. (it)
  • Hrefnesholt är en plats i Beowulf där den götiska kungen skall ha tagit den dåvarande sveadrottningen. Sveakungen Ongentheow anlände senare för att rädda henne och dödade Hæþcyn. Den götiska styrkan blev dock förstärkt av Hygelac, och svearna sökte därpå skydd i en fornborg, men förblev ändå stormade av götarna. Ongenþeow blev dödad och Hygelac blev den nya konungen av götarna. (sv)
