Cair Paravel was the peninsula, then island capital of the Kingdom of Narnia: a spectacular citadel and the abode of kings and queens from the dawn of time.

It lay empty during the White Witch's tyrannical reign in the Age of Winter, and was restored to use when the Pevensies were crowned there and fulfilled the prophecy which ushered in the Golden Age of Narnia.

During Narnia's Telmarine Conquest, the castle fell in the Battle of Cair Paravel. During Narnia's lengthy Telmarine Age, Cair Paravel was deserted, left as an ancient ruin, overgrown with woods at the Great River Delta. However, the nearby forests were once again cleared at the end of the Narnian Revolution, during which the nation was taken back by King Caspian the Seafarer, who either rebuilt the structure to its original splendour or erected an entirely new castle on the same location.

Narnia's horrific Calormene Age finally brought an end to the grand castle and its inhabitants during the brutal Extermination of Cair Paravel. This occurred mere days prior to the destruction of the world of Narnia by Aslan and the rebirth of its inhabitants into Aslan's Country.
