Castle Yronwood is one of the most well-fortified citadels in Westeros, having been captured from the Dornish in 86 AL and granted along with its lordship to Lord Baratheon's uncle, Ser Hendry Baratheon. Lord Hendry re-fortified Yronwood beginning in 89 AL, constructing a second curtain wall in stone that surrounded the existing fortress and sealed the southern entrance to the Boneway. Construction was completed in 94 AL by Lord Hendry's son, Lord Cortnay, who inherited the Lordship of Yronwood in 92 AL when Lord Hendry was poisoned by Dornish spies.
The citadel itself is constructed out of granite, a square boxy building with towers rising from each of the four corners sits in the center of the inner ward, amid the stables, barracks, armory, and the other outbuildings, all constructed of the same stone and enclosed by the inner wall. The outer wall is newer, of the same stone, and loops across the mouth of the Pass broken only by a single massive gatehouse, with a double-portcullis and a massive iron-rimmed oak gate.
There is ample space in the outer ward for a dragon or two, for the citadel was constructed with the intention of housing a massive garrison and army.
