'''Disney Castle''' is a [[world]] introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. It is surrounded by [[Disney Town]], and contains a portal to its past form, [[Timeless River]]. It is the home of [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]], [[Queen Minnie]], [[Daisy Duck|Daisy]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], [[Goofy]], and the other classic animated characters created by Walt Disney. As such, Disney Castle is considered to represent Disney's short films and cartoons, although that role would later be shared with [[Timeless River]]. Disney Castle's design is derived from the real-world {{w|Magic Kingdom}}, which is in turn based upon "[[Castle of Dreams|Cinderella Castle]]".

In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Disney Castle first appears during the opening scenes, and briefly during the credits. It was unplayable, although visible throughout the game on the Gummi Map screen to the left of [[Traverse Town]]. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', Disney Castle took on a more active role when the barrier protecting Disney Castle, the [[Cornerstone of Light]], was corrupted by Maleficent and the world was invaded by the [[Heartless]]. This brought Disney Castle's attention to [[Sora]] and his friends, who rescued the castle with the help of Queen Minnie and the inhabitants of Timeless River. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'', Disney Castle is the main base of operation, though it only appears in cutscenes. Mickey and [[Jiminy Cricket]] discover a message in [[Jiminy's Journal]] which says ''"We must free them from their torment"'' and thus creates the [[Datascape]]. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', Disney Castle briefly appears in cutscenes.
