A lord of the Rings build on a truly massive scale. This tower, reaching from the deepest darkest dungeons and mines to the top of the flaming eye is 256 blocks high!


It's not an exact replica of the one seen in the movies, I've changed the circular outer wall to a more subtle curve and have taken liberties about what it looks like inside. I've tried to combine what I imagined when reading the book and what you see in the movie.

When this is finished, I will put it up for download. The entire build reaches from bedrock to the height limit so it will only be suitable for a superflat world. However with some careful editing, you might be able to reduce its height by getting rid of the dungeons and reducing the height of the outerwalls.

Update: I reasoned that although the castle is an evil place, it must be able to support the day to day functions of a city like any other city so I have created a town within the walls and in the main underground caves. There's all sorts, markets, blacksmiths, slave quarters, butchers, bakers, stables, chapels, armouries, archery ranges and workshops! The extensive tunnels in the mines all link up including the shaft where cranes can transport minerals to the forges or surface. I have also added a cathedral to Melkor underneath the castle.

Thanks, Dude! It's still a work in progress so its not finished yet! My plan is to make ALL of Mordor and put it up as a world save =) So that will include Barad Dur, Mt Doom, Minas Morgul, Ork camp, Cirith Ungol and the Black Gate! So far the area is roughly 4000x4000 blocks XD
