The courtyard is the organizing space

Four square corner towers frame a stone courtyard around a small roofed keep. A broad south gate and spruce-roofed gatehouse give the enclosure a clear front, while crenellations define the outer walls.

The keep faces the gateway across the courtyard, with a small stone ring to one side. The ring is a built feature without a water block, so do not rely on it as a supplied water source.

The ground-floor tower doors and keep entry belong to the lower layout. The decorative wall tops are not a continuous raised wall walk.

Fit and import

  1. The full foundation is 34 × 30 blocks, with a 20-block vertical envelope. Orient the broad gate on the positive-Z side toward your main approach.

Choose an available file above and complete its protected download. Follow the import guide for your tool, start in a backup world and inspect the paste origin before placing the build.

The castle is unfurnished, and the wall-top crenellations do not provide a complete patrol route.
