Lord of the Rings: Rivendell

Rivendell recreates Elrond's refuge from The Lord of the Rings films as a multi-level display build, with terraces and pavilions linked by bridges around a central waterfall. At 6,181 pieces and 21 minifigures, it's one of the larger LEGO® Icons sets, built as a showpiece for adult fans rather than a set for everyday play.

Description

One refuge, many scenes

Rather than a single building, Rivendell links several distinct areas the way they appear on screen: terraces, open pavilions and walkways arranged around a central waterfall. The elvish architecture, full of curved shapes and open levels, stands in clear contrast to the boxier city buildings found in many other large sets. That layered layout creates plenty of small viewpoints and hidden details that only become visible on closer inspection, which fits a piece meant for repeated viewing rather than for reenacting a single fixed scene.

A council's worth of minifigures

With 21 minifigures, Rivendell is one of the more figure-heavy sets in the line and covers a good share of the characters who gather for the Council of Elrond in the story, including well-known figures such as Frodo, Gandalf, Aragorn, Bilbo and Elrond himself. For fans wanting to recreate that gathering as fully as possible, this roster is as much a draw as the architecture itself. The exact line-up of all 21 figures is listed in full on this page.

6,181 pieces in context

At 6,181 pieces and 898 unique parts, Rivendell sits among the larger sets in the current range, and that part count leans towards varied shaping for arches, railings and foliage rather than plain repetition. The colour palette of Light Bluish Gray, White, Sand Green and Tan carries that detail through: grey and white for stone and water, sand green for trees and planting, tan for the pavilions' timber. Working through the full parts list gives a good sense of how much shape variety sits behind the set's calm overall look.

Who it's built for

As part of the LEGO® Icons line, Rivendell targets adult collectors and Tolkien fans after a demanding display piece rather than a set for daily play. Its size and detail make the build a longer project best spread across several sessions rather than finished in one sitting. Paired with other Lord of the Rings sets, it also works as an anchor piece for a wider collection, while the large minifigure roster holds its own appeal separate from the architecture.
