Cairn of Fingolfin

The Cairn of Fingolfin was the place of the tomb of Fingolfin, the High King of the Ñoldor on a high mountaintop in the northern Echoriath (Encircling Mountains).

After the burial of his father, Turgon set high cairn over the grave and no enemy dared pass over the mountain or defiled the tomb until the time of the Fall of Gondolin.
