Irminsul
The Saxon Irminsul is an ancient Germanic symbol, often depicted as a pillar or treebecame. It was a central element in the beliefs of the Saxons and was considered a symbol of strength,
power and stability. However, the exact meaning of the Irminsul is disputed and there are many
theories about what they might represent.
In the old Old High German literature one often encounters the term irmin-súli. This term
describes in its meaning powerful tree trunks, which are as good as all trunks of the
Teutons, but especially among the Saxons, had sacred veneration.
One theory holds that the Irminsul is a representation of the Yggdrasil world tree from the
Norse mythology is. This tree connects the different worlds and is a symbol
for the connection between heaven and earth. Others believe that the Irminsul is a representation
of the throne of God, which served as a seat for the gods of the Germans.

culture and religion. It was often used as the center of religious rites and celebrations
