A LEGO® set of legends

Chainmail at the ready… you can’t have a list of the best fantasy LEGO sets without a sprinkle of medieval magic! Create a land fit for legends and tales of daring escapades with the Lion Knights’ Castle (10305) – an ode to the original LEGO Castle theme from 1984.

Celebrating 90 years of LEGO history and highly requested by LEGO fans, this impressive build is packed to the rafters with medieval details and nostalgic nods to classic LEGO castle sets. It’s got everything from hidden passages and secret hideouts for the queen and wizard to make their escape, to an armory where the knights and archers can prepare for battle and live out their legendary stories – huzzah!

You shall not pass!

One does not simply build a fantasy LEGO realm… or maybe one does.

Master the world of Middle-Earth™ and celebrate the iconic film trilogy with the THE LORD OF THE RINGS: RIVENDELL™ (10316) set! Taking its place in the top ten biggest LEGO sets of all time, this authentic build is bursting with magical details for film lovers. As an immersive project with over 6,000 pieces (a true quest indeed), this display-worthy set can be split into different sections to spread the magic, with tons of hidden references.

The detailed décor and enchanting forest setting come with 15 minifigures, including legendary characters such as Frodo Baggins™ and Gandalf the Grey™, ready to recreate some of the most memorable scenes. The most precious set of all…

Live your D&D fantasy

What if you want to play and display? One of our top fantasy LEGO sets is the Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale (21348). This set celebrates 50 years of D&D, including a custom campaign designed in collaboration with the world-renowned Wizards of the Coast – game on!

With magic items, epic monsters, and secrets hidden in every nook and cranny, this collectible set features a tavern, dungeon and tower for four adventurers to navigate. Choose the elf wizard, dwarf cleric, gnome fighter or orc rogue and get ready for adventure. Just beware of the traps, oozes and… gulp… that huge red dragon.

Hear ye, hear ye!

This list of fantasy LEGO sets gets another dose of medieval mayhem with the Medieval Town Square (10332)! Transport yourself to the quaint village of Felsa where your characters can sample a local refreshment in the Broken Axes Inn or grab a snack at the village market. But there may be more than meets the eye…

Look beyond the townspeople gossiping in the square and you’ll find a tax collector’s secret hideout, wanted posters with rewards for shady crooks and an ominous watchtower with a guard keeping an eye on the riffraff below. Based on the 2009 Medieval Market Village set (10193), this authentic build is great for any history lover – plus it includes a cheese factory. What more could you need?

It’s a pirate’s life for me!

Ahoy there, me hearties! For the final choice on our fantasy LEGO set list, we’re going nautical. Get ready to sail the high seas with the Imperial Flagship (10210), an epic build measuring over an impressive 29.5” (75cm) in length! Complete with four firing cannons, ammunition crates and a moving rudder, prepare yourself for a pirate battle of epic proportions and try to steer your way to victory.

The ship comes with nine minifigures, including the ship’s captain, a prisoner with shackles and four soldiers ready to rumble. Although this set is retired, you can find it over on BrickLink to add to your fantasy-fueled collection. Anyone know any sea shanties?

Whatever fantasy world floats your boat (pun intended), there is a LEGO set ready and waiting to transport you to another dimension. Get ready to disconnect, get creative and escape to a mystical realm with our top LEGO fantasy sets!
