Melian's Grotto was the spiritual centre of Doriath.It was connected to the deep grottos of Menegroth and the beds of the mid Esgalduin.Apart from wondrous stalagnites it contained a magic pool which emptied to the Esgalduin by a small minor tributary.Here Melian of Doriath wove her girdle and the magic that protected her land.Mostly she came here alone though at times she would take her daughter Lúthien Tinúviel or her pupil Galadriel with her to show them the wondrous images the pool would reveal.
