Which year was High Horn Hold built? I think it is mentioned in Cormyr: A Novel, but I can't find that information in there or any other Cormyr sourcebook at the moment. Anyone know?

Just to refresh this topic and bring it back on the 'active topics' list. I would be interested in this date myself.

Scribes and sages - anyone?

High Horn was built (with the assistance of the dwarves of Tethyamar) in the reign of King Thargreve (349DR - 360DR).

It was King Thargreve "the Greater" as I recall. The reference comes from Power of Faerūn [pg. 38].

Loved it when they were under assault, winded the horn, opened the gates and made a suicide charge into the orcs only to have Gandalf arrive at dawn to sav......ummm...(looks around and scratches his head) Damn , I though I was in the Library of Minas Tirith for a moment...High Horn Hold...Helm's Deep ....Damn confusing if you ask me! ....must have taken a wrong turn some where.....
