How to use the Nether Fortress Finder

Nether fortresses share their structure regions with bastion remnants (1.16+). Use this finder to get the Nether coordinates of the nearest fortress and remember that one Nether block equals eight Overworld blocks.

  1. Type or paste your seed in the seed box (numbers and text seeds both work), then pick your edition and version.
  2. Nether fortresses are marked on the map automatically. Drag to pan, scroll or pinch to zoom, and hover an icon to see its coordinates.
  3. Click an icon to copy the coordinates or a ready-made /tp command, and tick "Completed" to keep track of the ones you have visited.
  4. Use the "Nearest" list in the sidebar to jump straight to the closest ones to spawn or to any X/Z you enter.

Questions

How do I convert fortress coordinates to the Overworld?

Multiply the Nether X and Z by 8 to get the matching Overworld coordinates, or use the Nether Portal Calculator tool to plan a linked portal.

Why is a fortress not where the map says?

The marker is the fortress' starting point; fortresses are large and sprawl in one direction from there. Fly around the marker at Y 40–70 to find the bridges.
