Thor was Odin’s son and the lord of thunder, the most powerful of the Aesir Gods and Asgard’s main protector. He was well known for his bravery, strength, healing powers and righteousness. According to the myths, when lightning flashed in the sky and thunder roared, it was Thor riding in his chariot drawn by two goats, on the hunt for giants and trolls, with his legendary hammer, named Mjöllnir. He was a very trustful God, worshipped by all Vikings. Thor’s arch enemy and greatest opponent was the Midgard Serpent, doomed to destroy each other on the day of Ragnarok. The weekday Thursday is named after him.
