The Pelennor Fields was a large field surrounding (mostly to the east) Minas Tirith, the largest city and capital of Gondor.
History[]
Opposing hosts in the Battle of the Pelennor Fields
After Minas Ithil had fallen and was renamed Minas Morgul, the Pelennor Fields were walled by the Rammas Echor, to prevent attacks from Mordor. During the War of the Ring, the Pelennor Fields were the location of the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, when Sauron's Orc and Easterling armies overran the Rammas Echor and besieged the city.
It was on these fields that Théoden King was slain, along with the Witch-king of Angmar, and that most of the great battle was fought.
Etymology[]
Pelennor was a Sindarin word for 'Fenced Land'.[1]
In adaptations[]
In The Lord of the Rings film trilogy by Peter Jackson, the Pelennor Fields is portrayed as an uncultivated, beaten-down grassland. The perimeter wall is excluded.
