'''Ganon's Tower''' is a [[dungeon]] in the [[Dark World]] of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' that can be found in the same location as the [[Light World]]'s [[Tower of Hera (A Link to the Past)|Tower of Hera]]. [[Link]] needs all seven [[Crystal]]s to break the seal on Ganon's Tower. It's an incredibly complex dungeon and Link will have to fight all four [[Boss|bosses]] from the Light World's dungeons again in this palace.
'''Ganon's Tower''' is the final [[dungeon]] of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', located at the top of [[Death Mountain]] in the [[Dark World]], mirroring the [[Tower of Hera (A Link to the Past)|Tower of Hera]] from the [[Light World]]. The Tower is guarded by a strong magic spell, which is only breakable by the [[Seven Maidens]]. Therefore, [[Link]] needs to save all Seven Maidens from their respective [[Crystal]]s in order to enter the dungeon. It's an incredibly complex dungeon, which pits Link up against four returning [[Boss|bosses]] from the Light World's dungeons.

To break the seal and enter the dungeon Link will need all seven [[Crystal]]s which are obtained by beating the first seven dungeons.
Ganon's Tower is easily the most complex dungeon of the game. Below is a gallery showing off its many floors.

===Red Mail===
This is the final mail Link receives, and it reduces damage by 75% over the [[Green Mail]]. Though the [[Red Mail]] is not required to complete the game, it helps considerably with the rest of Ganon's Tower and the fight with [[Ganon]] himself.

===Armos Knights===
[[Armos Knight]]s are one of the easiest bosses in the game. Pull out the [[bow]] and, once they start moving, shoot arrows at them. Three arrows or a single silver arrow for each Knight will do the job. The corners are pretty safe. This battle differs from the previous encounter with the Armos Knights in that the entire battle takes place on an icy floor.
[[Armos Knight]]s are one of the easiest bosses in the game. Pull out the [[bow]] and, once they start moving, shoot arrows at them. Three [[Arrow]]s or a single [[Silver Arrow]] for each Knight does the job. The corners are a safe haven for Link, as the Knights generally do not move to that location. This battle differs from the previous encounter with the Armos Knights in that the entire battle takes place on an icy floor, increasing the difficulty.


When there is only one Knight left, he will turn red and start jumping and trying to land on Link. When he's about to land, move out of the way and hit him with the sword. He can also be hit with arrows while he is jumping.
When there is only one Knight left, it turns red and starts to jump around, trying to land on Link. When it's about to land, move out of the way and hit it with the sword. The Knight can also be hit with Arrows while it is jumping.

===Agahnim===
===Agahnim===
This time [[Agahnim]] is a little more difficult because he has made two duplicates of himself. It is easy to tell tell which one is his because his shadow is darker than the other two on his real form. To defeat him, use his own magic against him. With the sword hit his spells back to the "real" wizard like it's baseball. Agahnim will no longer use the lightning attack he used to in [[Hyrule Castle (A Link to the Past)|Hyrule Castle]]. Six hits with his own spells should take care of him.
