Irish insurance broker reveals the cost of building Game of Thrones’ Winterfell at a whopping €900,000,000

An Irish insurance broker has calculated the cost of building Game of Thrones’ Winterfell - and it’s a nearly €900,000,000.

The King of the North’s castle, which is expected to come under serious threat before the end of the show, is one of the largest in Westeros.

The estimated cost of rebulding the 8,000-year-old castle and surrounding buildings is €895,370,064.70, according to insurance company GMHD.ie.

The Killarney brokers also quoted Jon Snow an annual premium of €6,062,306.84 for the northern stronghold ahead of the show's final season.

Game Of Thrones ending will be 'bittersweet', says Ser Davos Seaworth actor Liam Cunningham 

Simon Gallivan, director of GMHD.ie, said “Jon Snow’s not known for his smarts but he could do worse than take us up on our offer of insurance considering the potential hazards he’ll face over the coming weeks.

“Admittedly it’s a chunky quote but if his credit rating is anything like that of the Lannisters we’ll happily arrange a payment plan.”

He added: “Whether you live in a castle or a semi-d, in Kings Landing or the Kingdom GMHD.ie and our experienced staff are committed to providing you with the right policy at the best price.

“We understand that no two properties are the same, and just as we have done for Mr. Snow we will always endeavour to cater for each home’s unique requirements.”
