Germanic Pagans still despise Charlemagne for supposedly destroying Irminsul. One reason they hate Christianity to this day:
According to the Royal Frankish Annals (772 AD), during the Saxon Wars, Charlemagne is repeatedly described as ordering the destruction of the chief seat of their religion, an Irminsul.[7] The Irminsul is described as not being far from Heresburg (now Obermarsberg), Germany.[7] Jacob Grimm states that "strong reasons" point to the actual location of the Irminsul as being approximately 15 miles (24 km) away, in the Teutoburg Forest and states that the original name for the region "Osning" may have meant "Holy Wood".[7]
