Minecraft Stronghold Seeds
By the ChunkScan Team · Updated August 2026
Every stronghold holds one End portal room, and in Java the closest three sit in a ring 1,280 to 2,816 blocks from the world origin. The seeds below each have a stronghold within 1,500 blocks of spawn, closest first, measured by scanning the world with cubiomes. Open a seed to see the stronghold on its map, or check your own world in the stronghold finder.

Why stronghold distance matters
Beating the game means reaching the End portal, and the eyes of ender you throw to find it break one time in five. A stronghold close to spawn saves eyes, blaze rods and travel, which is why speedrunners and hardcore players check it before they start a world.
How the distance is measured
Each seed was generated with cubiomes, the world-generation library that mirrors the game, for the listed Java version. The distance is straight-line from the world spawn to the stronghold's start. The portal room can be a few dozen blocks from that point, so follow your eye of ender for the last stretch.
