Armenelos, also known as the City of the Kings, Armenelos the Golden or Arminalêth, is the capital city of Númenor. It is the fairest of all cities on the island. It is situated on a hill in eastern central Númenor, in the district called Arandor close to the Meneltarma. The chief road of Númenor ran through the royal city, eastward it led to the haven of Rómenna while westward it led to Andúnië. Armenelos contains a tower and a citadel that had been built by Elros, the great house of the Kings, and the courts of the King with the place of the Tree where the White Tree Nimloth grew. At the top of the tower of the King's palace was an eyrie where a pair of great eagles lived on the bounty of the King from the time of Elros until the time of Tar-Ancalimon. Armenelos was founded as far back as the end of the First Age, when the Edain first migrated to the island. In S.A. 32, the coronation of Elros in Armenelos marked the beginning of the Númenórean realm.
