Belgarath’s Zelda Chateau

Many of the individual website pages are still not updated for the new site layouts. I’m working on it!
Active websites/projects have the website URL below (but not clickable) until the site updates are complete.
Thanks!

Belgarath’s Zelda Chateau is an early Zelda fan site founded in 1999 that hosts a collection of fan editorials, rumor discussions, music downloads, and art. It is notable as a small website that had its own team of volunteers and recurring reader contributions.

Instead of focusing on game help, Belgarath’s Zelda Chateau shares only basic information about the Zelda games that were available at the time and a news section dedicated to Zelda Gaiden (Majora’s Mask).
