Castle

The castle icon represents historic architecture and defensive structures functionality in travel and cultural applications. Featuring a medieval castle design with towers, walls, and gateway elements, this architectural symbol has become the standard for indicating historic sites, cultural landmarks, and medieval attractions across tourism platforms and cultural heritage interfaces.

In modern platforms like travel apps with historic site information or cultural tourism guides with landmark identification, you'll see this icon when users explore historic attractions or plan cultural visits. It appears in tourism interfaces during heritage site discovery, or in cultural applications where users locate historic castles, plan medieval tours, or explore architectural heritage requiring systematic cultural coordination and historic site management.

From a cultural heritage perspective, the fortress design communicates more than just 'building structure' - it specifically indicates historic significance and cultural heritage that represents medieval history and architectural legacy rather than modern construction or contemporary buildings. This heritage emphasis helps in tourism workflows where users need to understand they're accessing culturally significant sites that require historical appreciation and cultural context rather than casual sightseeing or modern attractions.

Castle is one of 1,655 icons in Lucide, made by Lucide Contributors and released under ISC. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds CastleIcon to components/icons/lucide-castle.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed CastleIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Yes, if your project has lucide-react: Castle is `CastleIcon` there, used as <CastleIcon />. The shadcn.io MCP server answers with that import when it finds the package. Without it, copy the icon from here.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the Castle icon, or any of 1,655 Lucide icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

Castle is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="Castle", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. CastleIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <CastleIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. ISC allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: ISC only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Lucide, Lucide Contributors and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
