Almaren, also known as the Isle of Almaren, was an island that was located in the Great Lake before the Years of the Trees. It was the first home of the Valar, in the middle of Arda.

Description[]

Little is known of the actual landscape of the island, except that it was covered with green grass.

History[]

Almaren was raised sometime after the retreat of Melkor when the earth had become firm and flat. It was at this place where the light of the Two Lamps mingled. Almaren was attacked and damaged by Melkor, and the Valar moved far to the West, to Valinor.[1]

Etymology[]

Almaren is a Quenya name that meant 'blessed place'.[2]
