Hey! Yeah, you in the Netherlands! I need your help.
« on: March 16, 2005, 07:18:47 PM »
Are there any cities anywhere in the Netherlands that have a statue or some sort of homage to Odin? I need to find one, so I can give Lord Odun a place of birth in my graphic novel.


Thanks Everybody. :-D

Precisely my point, I'm trying to find a place that acutally bears HOMAGE to him. Seems appropriate that a reborn god appear in a place that once (and still) worships him.

I was hoping that someone would be able to locate a place for me. All  I need is a bloody name.

I won't be as subtle as others - Odin is a NORSE God!!

:-P


[Norse = Scandinavia]

Good old American homegrown (my house, actually). ;-)Canadian's too expensive and Mexican is crap.


Actually, I didn't know for sure. That's why I asked. ^_~ I'm not up to date on my mythos anymore.


That being said, does anyone know of an aread in SCANDANAVIA that has some sort of homage to Odin? *bats eyelashes*

[edit] Ooops. My bad.

Thanks, V. Sorry about that Odin.  :lol:

Temple at Uppsala

I suppose you could use Uppsala, Sweden as Odin's place of birth.  It's probably the best you'll get :-)

There are a few communities that still worship the old gods. Most statues of the Gods were of wood, though there might be some left.
Uppsala is probably the best bet.

The Swedish Asatru society may have more info.
