Story and setting
The World of Middle-earth and the Third Age
The surrounding world of Middle-earth is set in the period of the Third Age. The central motif is the mighty realm of Gondor, which directly borders hostile Mordor and thus guards the Free Peoples against darkness.
Architectural Significance
Stone towers served as key defensive points and focal points of resistance within the realm of Gondor. Their solid masonry and iron-reinforced entrances reflected the resilience of human architecture against enemy onslaught.
