This article is about the sorceress from Norse mythology. For the evil queen from Disney's Snow White also known as Grimhilde, see Evil Queen (Disney).
In Norse mythology, Grimhild or Grímhildr ("masked battle"[1][2]) was a beautiful but evil sorceress who was married to king Gjúki of Burgundy in the Völsunga saga where she is the mother of three sons, Gunnar, Hǫgni and Guthormr, and a daughter, Gudrun. Other, similar characters of that name also appear in Illuga saga Gríðarfóstr and in Gríms saga loðinkinna.
