History

Goldengrove is part of the Reach proper[6] and was added to the Kingdom of the Reach by Garth III Gardener through pacts of friendship and mutual defense.[7]

During the War of Conquest, the King of the Rock, Loren I Lannister, and the King of the Reach, Mern IX Gardener, joined their mighty hosts at Goldengrove before marching against Aegon the Conqueror's army.[8]

During the Dance of the Dragons, the Rowans submitted their castle to the Greens host led by Lord Ormund Hightower fearing that Prince Daeron the Daring would burn Goldengrove with his dragon, Tessarion.[9]

Lord Thaddeus Rowan died on his way back to Goldengrove in 135 AC.[10]

In 136 AC, King Aegon III Targaryen canceled the royal progress prepared to mark his coming of age. Goldengrove was one of the castles planned to be visited by the king.[10]
