Wrap your Nether portal in a stone hub with walls, roof, light and storage.

Ghasts shriek. Fireballs fly. Your portal needs a fortress of its own before you dare go any further.

What you’ll build

Plan a hub around your Nether portal, then lay a stone floor, raise strong walls and add a roof. Light every corner, fit chests, a furnace, a crafting table and a coordinate sign, then watch your walls shrug off a ghast fireball.

Finish line: Your portal sits inside a lit, roofed, ghast-proof hub with storage and a coordinate sign.

Bonus challenge: Craft a respawn anchor (6 crying obsidian + 3 glowstone), charge it with glowstone and set your Nether respawn point in the hub.

You’ll need

  • 4–5 stacks of cobblestone
  • Torches
  • Chests
  • A crafting table
  • A furnace
  • A sign

You choose

  • My hub's name
  • Walls: cobblestone, blackstone or a mix
  • My secret emergency exit goes

Stuck?

  • Build with cobblestone, not netherrack. Ghast fireballs smash netherrack but cobblestone holds.
  • Netherrack floors break easily too, so lay stone underneath where you'll walk.
  • Portal switched off? Relight it with flint and steel.

For grown-ups
