Germanic Mythology encompasses the myths, legends, and beliefs of the Germanic peoples, including the Norse, Anglo-Saxons, and Frisians. It features a rich tapestry of gods, goddesses, and mythical creatures, with prominent figures such as Odin, Thor, and Freya playing central roles in the narratives.
These myths often explore themes of creation, fate, and the afterlife, with the concept of Valhalla as a notable afterlife destination for warriors. The stories were traditionally passed down orally and later recorded in texts like the Poetic Edda and Prose Edda, which remain vital sources for understanding this ancient belief system.
