Harrenhal
Place
A colossal ruined castle on the northern shore of the Gods Eye in the Riverlands, built by Harren the Black over forty years using forced labour. It was completed on the very day Aegon the Conqueror landed in Westeros, and Balerion's dragonfire melted its massive towers on the night it fell. It is widely considered cursed, as every house to hold it has met a terrible end.
