Hyrule Castle is the seat of Hyrule's Government, and home of the Royal Family. The Hyrule Castle was first seen in Zelda, A Link To The Past (3rd game in the series).

Appearances

A Link to the Past

In A Link to the Past, Hyrule Castle had two mini-dungeons within it. The first one being the first dungeon-type area in the game, the dungeons and sewers of the castle. Within this area Link rescues Princess Zelda. The second mini-dungeon is the tower of Hyrule Castle, only accessible after acquiring the Master Sword. Which Link climbs to confront Agahnim.

Ocarina of Time

The Hyrule Castle in Ocarina of Time only allows the player to enter the courtyard to speak to young Princess Zelda. Link must sneak past the guards to get to her too; talk about inconvenience! There are no dungeons or mini-dungeons within this version of Hyrule Castle.

The Wind Waker

Hyrule Castle in The Wind Waker is underwater. It is where our young hero finds the Master Sword. The castle starts out with a black and white coloring until Link retrieves the fabled Sword of Evil's Bane (the Master Sword), which then turns the castle back to color.

Four Swords Adventures

Hyrule Castle is a dungeon in Four Swords Adventures that you go to twice. The first time you go, you have to rescue the first Maiden from the evil Castle Guards. While there, Link reunites the two halves of the Fairy Queen, making her whole again. Link must fight Phantom Ganon in order to get to the maiden.
The second time through the castle is quite a bit different. This time, Link must use stealth to avoid being seen by the guards, who will throw Link into a jail cell. Once finally making it past the guards, Link can rescue the Maiden.

The Hyrule Castle in Four Swords Adventures highly resembles the one from A Link to the Past.

The Minish Cap

[Insert Information]

Twilight Princess

Main article: Hyrule Castle (Twilight Princess)

The largest version of Hyrule Castle so far, this one isn't totally accessible until the end of Twilight Princess. Although, Link can access the roof in the early portions of the game. This version of Hyrule Castle is the one that offers the player the most freedom to roam around in.

Spirit Tracks

Filled to the brim with guards who don't really do anything, the Hyrule Castle in Spirit Tracks is a lot like the one in A Link to the Past; with no dungeons. This is where Link gets his Engineer Certificate, tunic, and most importantly, his Sword.

Non-Canon Appearances

Hyrule Castle was a playable stage in Super Smash Bros.. A very similar area, called Hyrule Temple, was a playable stage in both Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Hyrule castle was also in Link's Crossbow Training

Trivia

It can be argued that Hyrule Castle also appears in the anniversary edition of Four Swords, due to the fact that it appears in a throwback level as the A Link to the Past castle.
