Description

A medieval workshop

Every castle town needs a smithy, since this is where horseshoes, tools and weapons are made. The set recreates that place as a playable building and includes two minifigures who can work in the workshop or guard it. You can drop it into a bigger Castle scene or display it on its own. The figures bring the building to life without needing much explanation. An anvil, some tools and a forge are enough to show at a glance what is made here, and small scenes with customers or apprentices are quick to stage.

Grey walls, blue accents

Black, light grey, blue and white define the set. Light grey stands for the masonry, black for the forge, roof and tools, and blue and white add small touches of colour. Across 629 pieces there are 97 different part types, so the mix is fairly varied. That helps if you later want to turn the parts into entirely different buildings, such as a guardhouse or a market stall. The dark pieces also suit roofs, gates and timber framing, which are the things a castle town always needs in a hurry.

Playing and expanding

The smithy is built so that you can reach it from several sides, which makes play easier because figures and accessories are simple to rearrange. At the same time its size makes it a good companion for other castle sets of the period. One or two evenings are enough to build it, and afterwards you can extend the scene as you like, for example with walls or horses from other sets. It also fits well into a bigger town at the foot of a castle, since craft and defence went hand in hand in the Middle Ages.

Reusing the parts

Because the set dates from 2002, you will mostly find it second-hand. The parts list on this page helps you check the condition of a copy or hunt for individual elements. The What can I build tool also shows which other models your collection could make with these 629 pieces, should you ever want to rebuild the smithy into something else. That gives the workshop a second life if you would rather keep the original on the shelf.
