I've heard Asatru being described as "germanic neopaganism" and I'm assuming this is what you are referring to. But this is actually an incorrect description. Asatru is not a new religion. In fact, it is an ancient religion that is being reconstructed. Asatru is gaining new followers, every day. Though, the number of followers is still pretty small, compared to other religions.

Did the pagan religion in Europe survive the onslaught of Christianity or is it reviving like the proverbial phoenix?

The historical record as it is now available suggests that the Pagan religion in Europe did not survive the advent of Christianity. The people who invented "neopaganism" have consistently said that the had discovered documentary proof of the survival of paganism, however such documentation has either never been produced, or has been found to be invented in modern times. The article in neopaganism in Wikipedia, particularly the History section is helpful.That article notes a Renaissance interest in ancient Greco-Roman Paganism beginning c. 1532, followed by a renewed interest in Old Gaelic and Old Norse Legends. The first modern neopagan organization noted is the Foundation of the Druid Order in 1717 in England. This represents a considerable time lapse from the last previously active European Pagans, be they Greco-Roman, Norse, Germanic, Celtic, etc.
