About LEGO Castle Classic

The Castle theme is one of LEGO’s primary themes first introduced in 1978 and based around medieval life with castles and knights. It is currently the third longest-lived theme in LEGO history. Over the years it saw numerous changes thus introducing various fantasy elements.
1979 LEGO Sets
1979 introduced Fabuland, bridging DUPLO and System with animal characters and story-led builds that ran for a decade. Classic Space expanded with new ships and lunar installations, and Castle gained momentum after its 1978 debut. Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen became LEGO Group president, setting the stage for the brand’s global expansion in the 1980s.
