Cair Andros

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In The Lord of the Rings, Cair Andros is an island in the middle of the Anduin River. Its name means foaming water because the head of the island rises over a hundred feet in the air like a ship, causing the water to foam. It was also a Gondorian garrison at the height of Gondor but became a city island after the fall of the Barad-dûr in the Second Age.
