WETA - The Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Blueprint - The Stable of Edoras
Edoras, one of the film’s most iconic locations, consisted of an expansive, multi-structure set erected on location at Mount Sunday, as well as a number of smaller interior studio sets. The exterior was also digitally augmented with hundreds of additional buildings to create the impression of an entire city.
Unveiled from the depths of the Middle-earth vault, these 1:2 scale reproductions of the original set plans from The Two Towers offer a rare glimpse into the craftsmanship behind one of the most iconic locations in cinematic history—Edoras.
Based on sketches by legendary conceptual designer John Howe and brought to life by the 3Foot6 Ltd. construction team under the guidance of production designer Grant Major, these blueprints were instrumental in transforming artistic vision into the on-screen grandeur fans know and love.
For both collectors and enthusiasts, these detailed set plans are more than just reproductions—they are a vital piece of cinematic history. They capture the meticulous process behind the making of The Lord of the Rings and serve as a testament to the artistry that made the world of Middle-earth feel so real.
