Nordkrone (Danish: Nordkronen, meaning "Northern Crown") is a mountain in Peary Land, Northern Greenland. Administratively it is part of the Northeast Greenland National Park.
Danish Arctic explorer Eigil Knuth described the mountain in the following terms:

(Nordkrone)... is the soul of Peary Land. Isolated it lies in the heart of the country expressing all its vast solitude. With its rows of giant pillars, its glaciers snaking in heraldic designs at the foot, it bears witness to the two mighty powers that reign over Peary Land, the wind and the frost.
