Gaelen's Hold

Gaelen's Hold, centre of Kildarian government.

Gaelen's Hold is a palace complex in Gaelen's Landing. Its origins can be traced back to the days when Kaiser Gaelen I landed on the western shores of Greater Kildare in the mid-15th century and began his conquest of the region. Originally a small temporary castle, overlooking the bay which served as main landing place for the Shirerithian armies, the palace expanded throughout the ages.
