The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Perched atop the highest point in Whiterun, Dragonsreach is a grand wooden palace that serves as the seat of Jarl Balgruuf the Greater. Originally built to imprison a dragon in the First Era, its vast hall features sweeping rafters, a towering throne, and an open hearth that casts flickering light on the aged stone walls. Rich tapestries and Nordic carvings adorn its chambers, while guards and advisors bustle through its echoing corridors. Beyond its role as a seat of power, Dragonsreach stands as a symbol of Whiterun’s strength, history, and the ever-watchful eye of its Jarl.
