The valkyries bring those who die in battle to Valhalla ruled by Odin.
In Norse mythology, Valhalla is the Hall of Heroes. The slain warriors would be free to drink all night and be reborn to fight again. It's the Norse equivalent of "heaven".
In Norse mythology, Valkyries are warrior maidens who serve Odin, the chief god. Their primary role is to choose those who may die and those who may live in battles, guiding the souls of fallen warriors to Valhalla, Odin's hall, where they prepare for Ragnarok. Valkyries are often depicted as noble and fierce figures, embodying the ideals of honor and bravery in combat. They also sometimes serve as lovers or companions to the heroes they select.
In the Norse Mythos Valhalla was reserved for those who died with glorious valor. Which for a Viking meant that they were expected to die valliantly in death, if they did they believed that the Valkyries would take them to Valhalla.
German tank commanders were known to play 'Ride of the Valkyries', a famous opening from Act III of Wagner's Die Walkure, over their radios while beginning an armoured movement. However, these were only soldiers, most of whom were not Nazis.
According to Norse Mthology and Legends , when a Viking dies in battle , they are brought to Valhalla ( Odin's home ) by the Valkyries . There , they drink Mead (honey beer ) and feast on wild boar .
