Dragonpit
Location from House of the Dragon by George R.R. Martin
Massive domed structure on Rhaenys's Hill in King's Landing, built to house the royal dragons. Stormed and destroyed by a mob during the Dance, marking the beginning of the end for dragons in Westeros.
Also known as: the Dragonpit, the pit, Rhaenys's Hill
What They Know
- The Dragonpit was built by Maegor the Cruel and completed during Jaehaerys I's reign
- Dragons kept in the pit grow smaller than those allowed to range freely — confinement limits their size
- Five dragons died when the smallfolk stormed the pit during Rhaenyra's occupation of King's Landing
- The dome's collapse buried dragons and attackers alike — thousands of smallfolk died alongside the dragons they came to kill
