Valheim Hof is a heathen temple in the Danish town of Korinth. Is it the first pagan temple since the Christianization of Scandinavia, which took place between the 8th and the 12th centuries. The temple is dedicated to the gods Odin, Frigg and Thor. The design was made by Jim Lyngvild, and it is modeled on the excavations of the 7th century Uppåkra temple. Lyngvild explicitly stated that the temple is not meant to be some sort of playground, but that it must have a divine status.

As the old ways are once again welcomed into Danish culture, this temple rises to hail the way. Valheim hof is also called Manheim hof, and this is the name most Danish sources use.

This temple is on private land, and in general it is not open to the public.
