Beowulf was from Geatland (modern-day Sweden).
Beowulf, the epic hero in the Anglo-Saxon poem of the same name, is traditionally believed to be from Geatland, a region located in what is now modern-day Sweden. Geatland, also known as Götaland in Swedish, was one of the three major regions of ancient Sweden, the others being Svealand and Österland. Geatland spanned the southern part of present-day Sweden, extending from the Göta älv (The Göta River) in the west to the region surrounding Lake Vänern in the east.The poem of Beowulf provides several clues about Beowulf's origin and ties to Geatland.
