Comics

Nidavellir is a Ten Realms world of caverns and great forges on the middle tier of Yggdrasil near Midgard, home to the Dwarves who crafted the strongest weapons of the Nine Worlds, among them Mjolnir. Nomadic Rock Trolls also roam parts of it. An alliance with Asgard led to the forging of Mjolnir, and Odin later let Tony Stark use the forges.

Cinematic

A neutron star ringed by a megastructure, home of the Dwarves and renowned for its forges, which are under Asgardian protection. Thor once freed it from an invader. Thanos later had the Gauntlet forged there, killed every Dwarf but Eitri and left the forges frozen. Years afterward Thor, Rocket and Groot restarted the star and forged Stormbreaker.
