For decades, the people of Lakeside County had been loyal to the Lion Knights.

Now the count's daughters rule the fortress. Their good contacts with the Forest Guardians indicate that the crown should not rely on them anymore.

This model is a valuable addition to the existing LEGO castle world. A new faction has arrived and brings additional excitement to the story. The high-contrast but very classic color scheme and the crooked floor plan give this fortress its very own character.

When closed, the residence forms a complete fortress. Access is via a working drawbridge.

A dark dungeon can be found in the basement vault. Prisoners with the necessary knowledge can break out through a secret passage in the wall. Or they convince the rat to bring them the keys.

In addition to a treasury and armory, there is also a well in the basement that supplies the residents with water.

Stairs lead to the living area of the fortress. There is a table by a cozy fireplace with two stools and a tallow lamp.

The blue bird that lives in the castle can be observed from the romantic windows. At night or when danger is imminent, these windows are simply closed. Of course, a bed should not be missing here either.

To defend the gate and drawbridge, a wooden battlement can be manned, which has loopholes and machicolations.

Another treasure is hidden in the detachable top of the tower.

The raft that comes with it is reminiscent of the connection to the Forest Guardians, but can also be used to visit the Lion Knights.

This fortress is neither too small nor too big, but just right. You will have a lot of fun building it as it really is more than the sum of its pieces.
