Mindolluin[1] or Mount Mindolluin[2] was a mountain in Middle-earth, the easternmost of the White Mountains. Below and to the east of it stood the city of Minas Tirith.
History[]
Shortly after Aragorn's coronation as King Elessar, Gandalf took him by an ancient path into the foothills of Mindolluin, far above the city. There, upon an otherwise barren slope in a Hallow visited only by the Kings, he discovered a sapling of the White Tree of Gondor, which he planted in the Court of the Fountain.[3]
Etymology[]
Mindolluin is Sindarin for "towering blue head"; the double "l", as with all double letters in Sindarin, was pronounced as two separate letters rather than one.
