The Asgardian Dungeons was a large prison underneath the Royal Palace of Valaskjalf where the most dangerous enemies of the Nine Realms were imprisoned. It was destroyed during Ragnarök.

Members of the Marauders were placed in the dungeons when they were captured on Vanaheim.[3]

In 2013, Algrim was imprisoned in the dungeons as part of a plan by Malekith to steal the Aether from Jane Foster. He later transformed through the use of a Kurse Stone, broke out of his cell, and instituted a mass prison break.[3]
Prisoners Freed[]
Lorelei was among the prisoners who escaped, fleeing to Earth. The Einherjar were deployed to contain the prisoners, aided by Fandral, Volstagg, and Thor.[3]
Later, Thor broke Loki out of his cell so he could help him and Jane Foster escape Asgard. While Loki was never recaptured, Lorelei was found and subdued by Sif on Earth and then returned to Asgard.[2]
