It is located at the southern end of the Weather Hills that lay west of the Shire in the region of Eriador. For a time, it was home to one of the seven palantíri which were brought to Middle-earth. The forces of the Witch-King of Angmar eventually destroyed the tower.

| Mirkwood |
![[ ]](http://s1.images.proboards.com/off.gif) | The Forests of Mirkwood The name 'Mirkwood' was only used after about The Third Age (1050) when Sauron lived in Dol Guldur, in the wood's southern regions. Sauron was discovered and fled to Mordor, but the Nazgûl soon returned to the forest. Evil spread through the wood, and the wood was renamed by the Elves Taur e-Ndaedelos - Forest of Great Fear. Mirkwood is a version of that name.

![[ ]](http://s1.images.proboards.com/off.gif) | Dol Guldur Around The Third Age (1050), an evil presence started being felt in the south of great forest known as the Greenwood. The evil spread, turning the forest dark and dank, and evil creatures began to be seen in the forest. The source of the evil was the fortified hill known as Dol Guldur (Hill of Sorcery) in the southwest of the forest. Over the next thousand years the evil spread until all of the forest, except for the portion in the north under conrol of the wood elves, became a vile, dark, and unsafe place.

It was the citadel of the Kings of Gondor after the destruction of Osgiliath. In the centre of the topmost circle was a tall tower called the Tower of Ecthelion.
