{{quote|Hyrule Castle once welcomed all Hyrulians. It was the home to several generations of royalty who were worshipped by their people. Inside the castle, royal red carpets were rolled out over the castle’s stone floors, and rich tapestries from far off lands adorned its walls. Many fierce battles were waged just outside the castle walls against outside attackers, but the Hyrulians prevailed-until Agahnim appeared with his sinister strategy.|Nintendo Player's Guide}}

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|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|Zelda]]. The second mini-dungeon is the tower of Hyrule Castle, only accessible after acquiring the [[Master Sword]]. Which Link climbs to confront [[Agahnim]].

''The castle itself dated back to early Hylian times, but its surrounding wall and gate were constructed in later years. The high arched entry and hand carved doors, designed by the royal architect, were much admired, and people came from all over the kingdom to pass through them when they were completed.''

''The castle’s front gate was always heavily guarded against intruders, but people said that there were other ways to enter. Link’s uncle apparently found a secret path that led from outside the walls to the inner garden. From there, Link must have sneaked by the sentries and walked right through the front doors.''

''Plants from the far reaches of the kingdom were transplanted in the garden courtyard that fronted Hyrule Castle. Fine marble tiles from the mountains lined the walk, and colorful Rosehedge and Orangecap bushes dotted the carpet of grass. Guards observed the garden from catwalks on the castle walls.''

After a brief scolding, his uncle will give Link the sword that was used in the failed attempt at breaching the castle. This is one of the weakest weapons in the game, in addition to being the easiest weapon to obtain the first time.
