Disney castle
You know the story. You cosy up on the sofa, get your warmest, comfiest blanket, and stick on your favourite Disney movie. Whether you prefer Tangled, Mulan, or Moana is a conversation for another time (Moana is best). One thing they all have in common is the intro cinematic that showcases the classic Disney castle. Although it was first made famous in Cinderella, the castle has become ingrained in Disney culture and is instantly iconic. There are dozens of Disney castle tutorials out there, but by far the most impressive one we’ve seen so far is YouTuber “SmallishBeans” take on the Disney Castle. It’s insanely detailed, so why not sit back, relax, stick on your favourite Disney soundtrack, and take a look?
Arendelle castle
Of course, no modern Disney film has gripped the world quite like Frozen. It’s only natural that Arendelle castle, the home of Anna and Elsa, appears on this list. Oh and the soundtracks for both films are filled with some absolute bangers to enjoy while you work on this Arendelle castle build. Some things never change folks, and this is sure to be a timeless classic. You can create this build using this tutorial by YouTuber “Trixyblox”, and then embrace your magical heritage by enchanting all of your gear. Just remember to make some books so that you can get the best enchantments possible.
Medieval castle
Okay, that’s enough Disney castles. If you want something that could be thrown into any fantasy world, this Medieval castle by Youtuber “BlueNerd Minecraft” is perfect. With plenty of towers around the edge of the build, you’ll be able to fend off mobs from any direction. Even the Wither wouldn’t be able to break through these gates. It might be best to stock the storage rooms with some Diamond and Netherite gear, though. You never know when a Creeper might come along and destroy part of your wall.
Dracula castle
If you want something a bit more Gothic, this Dracula castle built by YouTuber “Trixyblox” deserves a spot in your world. This terrifying castle will strike fear into everyone on your Server. Just because Halloween won’t roll arond for a little while longer, that shouldn’t stop you from embracing your inner Tim Burton! Find your mysterious, evil side and use this as a lair for all of your nefarious deeds. If you’re a bit DND obsessed (like me) then this should scratch your Curse Of Strahd itch between sessions.
Hogwarts
It’s the 20th anniversary of the Harry Potter movies and Christmas is on the horizon. There’s no better time to leap into the Wizarding World, and there’s really no place like Hogwarts. YouTuber “Planet Dragonod” has an entire series that will guide you through placing every single block in this iconic wizarding school. It’s pretty long, with 30 videos to get through in total, but it’s certainly worth it. This isn’t just a shell with no interior - Dragonod has recreated countless iconic locations from the Harry Potter franchise, including the Clock Tower, the Transfiguration Courtyard, and Dumbledore’s Office. This castle is the perfect place to get stuck in and brew some potions - bonus points, especially if you wear a Hermione skin. Give it a go and live your Harry Potter fantasy.
Floating castle
Exploring a new world in Minecraft is certainly exciting. Discovering villages, taming horses, and going on grand adventures. Ahh, it really is lovely. It all gets quite stressful when you have to choose somewhere to settle down though. You scour biome after biome for the perfect location, but it can be difficult to find somewhere that’s just right. YouTuber “Twin Saw” has the perfect way to skip all of that dread and just get straight into building. Make a castle that floats in the air! With craggy platforms that could only be held up by a powerful mage, this castle is perfect for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle of Minecraft’s Overworld.
Island fortress
If you like the idea of being excluded from the rest of your Minecraft world, but don’t want to be magically suspended in the air, then YouTuber “BigTonyMC” has an Island Fortress tutorial that’s just the thing for you. The dock outside houses several boats that you and your friends can use to chart new lands whenever you want. Just make sure to pack your map, as you wouldn’t want to get lost far away from your idyllic home.
Dover castle
Those of you looking for an iconic landmark to place into your Minecraft world need look no further. The English Heritage charity teamed up with Yogscast to re-create Dover castle in Minecraft, and it is nothing short of spectacular. With sprawling walls and winding pathways that web throughout the courtyards, this is so much more than just a building.
