Massive Cinderella Castle Built From 50,000 LEGO Bricks

It’s no work of magic. LEGO super-crafter Erik Jones has constructed a replica of Cinderella’s castle using no less than 50,000 bricks to do so.

Naturally, construction on this stunning set-up lasted well-past midnight. After feeling a wave of inspiration during a trip to the real castle at the Disneyworld Resort, creator Erik Jones first designed the castle in LEGO Digital Designer, then referenced original blueprints for the castle using blueprints he located online.

A few (thousand) Bippity Boppity Boos later, and Jones’ wish came true. Clocking in at six and a half feet tall, by four and a half feet wide, the castle is larger than Prince Charming. But the real challenge, according to Jones, was just finding enough bricks to build the entire castle. As Jones revealed on his Reddit page, he dropped more than $4,500 on LEGO supplies. That has to be worth a pair or two of glass slippers.
