Edoras is a fortified hill-town, the ancestral home of the House of Eorl, and the capital of the Kingdom of Rohan. Brego, the son of Eorl the Young and the second King of Rohan, built the hall of Meduseld in Edoras and moved the capital there from Aldburg in Third Age 2569. Edoras is located in the Folde, the heartland of Rohan, and is part of the King's Lands.
