LEGO set 7189, “Mill Village Raid”, depicts a village under attack within the Castle universe, specifically the Kingdoms theme. Released in 2011, it contains 666 pieces and focuses on a rural setting rather than a royal stronghold.
Within Castle, 7189 “Mill Village Raid” has a distinct role because it moves the action to an inhabited village. The subject combines peasant life, civilian characters and Dragon Knights, broadening the usual battlefield context of the Kingdoms theme.
