LEGO® The Lord of the Rings: Minas Tirith

Minas Tirith is one of the largest LEGO® Icons sets released so far, rebuilding the seven-tiered capital of Gondor from The Lord of the Rings. At 8,278 pieces and 12 minifigures, it is a long-term build rather than a weekend project. This page lists every part and colour used in the model.

Description

A city built in rings

The design follows the film's white city closely, stacking seven walled levels that spiral up around a central tower rising above the plain outside its gates. White and light grey form the bulk of the stonework, with dark grey and black picking out gates, windows, battlements and narrow defensive walkways along the walls. The 12 minifigures cover key characters and soldiers from the siege, so builders can stage several scenes from the story once the model stands finished, from the outer defences to the throne room at the summit.

A long-term build

With 1,026 unique parts spread across 8,278 pieces, the set is built level by level rather than room by room, which keeps the process readable even at this scale. Lower rings reuse similar wall sections and techniques, while the upper tiers, citadel and tower use more bespoke shaping and a wider mix of angled parts. Building in sessions works well here, finishing one ring before starting the next, which turns a project of this size into a manageable weekly habit rather than a single overwhelming sitting.

Colours and parts

The restrained palette of white, light grey, dark grey and black keeps the model looking like carved stone rather than a bright toy set, and the same colours turn up again and again across the ring walls and towers. That repetition makes the parts list on this page genuinely useful beyond this one build, since many of the plates, slopes, arches and wall elements suit other grey-stone, castle or fortress projects a builder might already own or plan to start.

Who it suits

This is a display set aimed at Lord of the Rings fans and large-scale collectors rather than a play set built around functions or vehicles. It needs real shelf depth once finished, and the reward is a model with a strong silhouette that reads clearly from across a room, with plenty of film-accurate detail visible on closer inspection for anyone who steps in for a proper look at the towers, gates and stepped city walls.

FAQ

How long does Minas Tirith take to build?
There is no official build time, but with 8,278 pieces across seven city rings, most builders spread the project over several sessions.
Does the set include interior detail?
The 12 minifigures and 1,026 unique parts allow for several staged scenes, though the model is built mainly as an exterior display piece.
How much display space does it need?
Given the piece count and seven-tier design, expect a tall, wide model that needs a dedicated shelf rather than a small display spot.
