Ctrl-V does exactly this.  You can go into insert mode, then hit C-V,
Ctrl+Up and it will display:

<C-Up>

You can :help keycodes to see a list of others.

Hi,

 I often have the problem to guess, how a certain keysequence is named
 by the syntax of the vim scripting language.

 Recently I tried to map Control-CursorUp but it simply does not work
 for me.

 Is there any function/script/hack/trick/* like Ctrl-v is for the "raw
 keysequence" to display the <"key"> thingy?

 Something like (example!)  :

 :showkey<CR>

 will display

 :press key

 then one presses the key in question (for example Alt plus F11...)
 and then it displays:

 :<C-F11>

 ...

 (an example only just to get around my limitied "power of
 explanation"... ;O)

 Keep hacking!
