In the Disney film 'Frozen', Arendelle is the name of the fictional kingdom set in the mountains of a Scandinavian-inspired landscape. Several Norwegian landmarks also appear in the film, for instance, the Akershus Fortress in Oslo, the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, and Bryggen in Bergen. Arendelle, on the other hand, is entirely fictional.

'Frozen' (2013) is a computer-animated musical fantasy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. It was inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale 'The Snow Queen'. The film tells the story of Princess Anna, who sets off on a journey with Kristoff the iceman, his reindeer named Sven, and a snowman called Olaf, to find her runaway sister. Elsa fled after being provoked by Prince Hans of the Southern Isles, which caused her to accidentally trap the kingdom in an eternal winter with her magic icy powers.

Elsa is the Queen of Arendelle, who ascended to the throne after her parents died at sea. Elsa was originally written as a villain, as in Andersen's story, however, Disney chose to adapt Elsa into a powerful but confused ice queen who struggles to control her powers.

Due to this major change, 'Frozen' is only loosely based on 'The Snow Queen', yet Disney honoured the author in another way. The main characters' names can be pronounced quickly to sound like the name Hans Christian Andersen. "Hans, Kristoff, Anna, Sven."
