In Britain we love mysteries and dramas set in Scandinavia - Scandi Dramas. I listed these in the UK forum but will keep track of them here too. Please post any more that you come across for any European countries other than Italy, France, Spain, UK, Switzerland/Austria (they all have their own forums).

Trapped on BBC Four. Detective murder mystery set in northern Iceland in the winter. Snow! Very good.
Earlier
The Killing on BBC Four had 3 very good seasons. This is a detective murder mystery set in Denmark. It was very good and was a big hit here.
The Bridge on BBC Four is a joint Swedish/Danish production, with English subtitles. There have been two seasons, and season 3 started in 2015. This was my favorite of the Scandi Dramas.
Borgen on BBC Four is from Denmark and sounds boring but was not. A very good political drama. The main character is the female leader of Denmark. There were 3 seasons and it is finished now.
The Legacy on Sky. A new Scandi Drama showed in the UK in 2014. There have been two seasons of this. Very good.
