== History ==
The Holmenkollen Medal was established by the Skiforeningen, also known as the Association for the Promotion of Skiing, in 1894. [[Andreas Bloch]], a Norwegian artist, designed the medal. It contains the ski association's emblem and the phrase, "Idræt for fædrelandet", which means ''sports for the fatherland''. The medal was first awarded in 1895.<ref name=":2" />  

The board of the [[Skiforeningen]] selects the award winners. In its early years, the award was given for placement at events held during the [[Holmenkollen Ski Festival]]. In the latter part of the 20th century, the board considered results at major international ski events and at [[Holmenkollen|Holmonkollen]]. The medal is mostly awarded to active skiers in the [[Nordic skiing]] disciplines, though [[Alpine skiing|Alpine skiers]] have received the distinction. A skiing museum curator and members of the [[Norwegian royal family]] have also been among past medal recipients. Since 2011, [[Biathlon|Biathetes]] have received the award.<ref name=":0" /> 

The medal is awarded during the Holmenkollen Ski Festival and may be presented to the recipient by a [[Monarchy of Norway|Norwegian monarch]]'''.''' There are some years in which the medal is not awarded.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" />
