For other meanings of Freya, see Freya (disambiguation). In Germanic paganism and its subset, Norse paganism, Freyja (sometimes anglicized as Freya) is a major goddess, sister of the fertility god Freyr and daughter of the sea god Njörðr. She is described as the fairest of all goddesses, and often seen as a Norse fertility goddess. Because the best documented source of this religious tradition, the Norse Mythology, was transmitted, romanticized or demonized by Christian medieval historians, the actual role, heathen practices and worship of the goddess are uncertain.
