Germanski paganizam

Emil Deplerov prikaz druge merzeburške vražbine, 1905. U vražbini bogovi iz kontinentalne nemačke mitologije leče konja.

Germanski paganizam se odnosi na etničku religiju koju su praktikovali germanski narodi od gvozdenog doba do hrišćanizacije tokom srednjeg veka. To je bio esencijalni element rane germanske kulture. Iz arheoloških ostataka i književnih izvora, moguće je pratiti niz zajedničkih ili blisko povezanih verovanja među germanskim narodima u srednjem veku, kada su poslednja paganska područja u Skandinaviji pokrštena. Ukorenjena u praindoevropsku religiju, pragermanska religija se proširila tokom migracionog perioda, donoseći proširenja kao što je staronordijska religija među severnogermanskim narodima, poganstvo praktikovalo među kontinentalnim germanskim narodima i anglosaksonsko poganstvo među govornicima staroengleskog jezika. Germanska religija najbolje je dokumentovana u nekoliko tekstova iz 10. i 11. veka, koji su najbolje sačuvani u Skandinaviji i Islandu.
