I wouldn't know, but it can't be too tall becuase in the book, saruman looks down from his balcony thing and talks to Gandalf, that is the same balcony that he talks to the orcs from, and then there is atleast 200-300 more feet above the balcony, and the balcony has to be in earshot of the ground, so your might be looking at 250- 350 feet

i dont think it really tells u how high they actually r.......and saruman could have been using his powers to make his voice louder...............in rotk it says he has a voice that is full of power.

yeah, stuff like actual dimensions of buildings weren't given by tolkien, so ur guess is as good as any other

i think tower of ecthelion was 700 ft high, baradur maybe 1/2 mile, and orthance 400 ft (all but ecthelion guesses)

barad dur is 3000 feet high

wow, thats high, where did you find out?

the book said that sauroman's voice was magical because it was like hypnotic. and in the book, sauroman told gandalf he could hear him fine, and i don't think gandalf was welling at the top of his lungs

Barad-dur is the tallest I think..About 1000 feet

alan lee actually says in the trilogy book that barad dur is 3000feet high

anyone know how tall helm's deep was? just curious

Well, you mean how high the Hornburg (the fortress of Helms Deep) or how high/deep Helms Deep is?

Well, the wall is about 250 feet long; the tower itself was a little shorter than Minas Tirith (<300 feet), but I don't know how high exactly.

the actual fortress thingy

A little shorter then Minas Tirith - so maybe 200 or 250 feet, I think.

thanx

I would like to buy a loft at Barad-Dur..what a view

Oh yes
lol but you might be angry with all the fog and darkness hanging around the tower...

mmm... tower... tower... is there any tower mentioned in LOTR books?

How do you mean, any towers - besides Minas Ithil&Anor etc?

O~ I just realized they 'are' actually 'towers'?
