Baldur is one of the most important gods in Norse mythology, the son of Odin and Frigg, associated with light, beauty, purity, and goodness. He was distinguished by his extraordinary beauty and gentle disposition, and his presence brought a sense of peace and harmony to the other gods. According to mythological accounts, Frigg, wishing to protect her beloved son, obtained a promise from nearly all beings and objects that they would not harm him. The exception turned out to be mistletoe, which Loki treacherously used to bring about Baldur’s death. His tragic fate became one of the most significant events heralding Ragnarök—the twilight of the gods and the end of the existing world order. In Norse mythology, Baldur remains a symbol of innocence, light, and goodness, the loss of which heralds the coming of dark times.
