Yggdrasil is the world tree in Norse culture. The name possibly comes from ''Ygg'', one of [[Odin]]s many names, and ''drasill'', meaning “horse”.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=Yggdrasil tolkas vanligen som en sammansättning av Ygg "den förskräcklige", det vill säga Oden, och ''drasill'' "häst".|translquote=Yggdrasil is usually interpreted as a compound of Ygg "the terrible", i.e. Odin, and ''drasill'' "horse".|chapter=2.

In ''Grímnismál'' it is Hel, Jotunheim, and Midgard; and in the ''Prose Edda'' it is Niflheim, Jotunheim, and Asgard. By each root lies a well, those being Urd’s Well, where the [[Norn]]s live and where the gods gather to hold court; Mimer’s Well, whose waters make any who drink it wise and to which Odin sacrificed his eye in exchange for being allowed to drink from it; and Hvergelmer, where [[Nidhoggr]] and other snakes lie and gnaw on Yggdrasil's roots. | |||
In the crown of the tree sits a great eagle with a hawk on its forehead. The squirrel [[Ratatoskr]] runs up and down the tree’s trunk, conveying the words of Nidhoggr and the eagle to each other. | |||
During Rangarok, the entire tree will tremble and burn up.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=I slutet av tillvaron skälver trädet och brinner slutligen upp i det att dess lågor slår mot himlen.|translquote=At the end of existence the tree trembles and ultimately burns up as its flames strike the sky.|chapter=2.
