'''Disney Castle''' is a [[World]] from ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. 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]]. It is surrounded by [[Disney Town]].

Disney Castle first appeared during the beginning segments of ''Kingdom Hearts''. 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.

Disney Castle later appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'', where Mickey and [[Jiminy Cricket|Jiminy]] discover a message in [[Jiminy's Journal]] that says ''"We must free them from their torment"'' and create a data version of Sora.

Other places to be explored include the '''Library''', where [[Donald Duck|Donald]], [[Queen Minnie|Minnie]], [[Daisy Duck|Daisy]], and [[Goofy]] first read the letter from King Mickey about the danger of the universe. [[Minnie]], [[Daisy]] and a broom servant can also be seen here anytime after you save the castle from [[Maleficent]] after returning from [[Timeless River]]. The '''Courtyard''' is the place where Donald catches Goofy napping, and where Queen Minnie and Daisy ask Donald to explain things in the beginning of ''Kingdom Hearts''. The '''Colonnade''' in the castle connects the Courtyard to the rest of the castle. A '''[[Disney Town|town]]''' can also be seen on the world image of the castle on the world map. This town is where [[Horace Horsecollar]] and probably [[Clarabelle Cow]], and [[Clara Cluck]] are living in after the Castle was built.

A pathway can also be seen when Donald rushes to tell Goofy about the King's disappearance in the first game. However, this pathway was deleted in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.

This world is only seen in cutscenes while Sora is at the [[Destiny Islands]], when [[Donald Duck]] gets a letter from [[Mickey Mouse|King Mickey]] with [[Pluto]] and is ordered by [[Queen Minnie]] to find the [[Keyblade|"Key"]] and the King. Donald and Goofy begin their journey from here on. The world appears on the Gummi Ship map near [[Traverse Town]], but is not accessible. In the ending credits, [[Huey, Dewey, and Louie|Huey, Dewey and Louie]] return to Disney Castle after the order of the worlds is restored.

When [[Pete]] and [[Maleficent]] mess with the [[Cornerstone of Light|Cornerstone]] and try to take over the castle by going back to the past to alter the present, Sora visits the castle for the first time, where he protects Queen Minnie, and eventually goes to [[Timeless River]] with Donald and Goofy, a past version of Disney Castle before it was built, to stop Pete from destroying the Cornerstone. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+|Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'', the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], where you fight with the [[Lingering Sentiment]] is also accessible in the Hall of the Cornerstone. In the ending credits, you see Donald, Goofy, [[Uncle Scrooge]], [[Pluto]], [[Huey, Dewey, and Louie|Huey, Dewey, Louie]], and King Mickey all returning to Disney Castle.

This is where the story of ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'' begins, with Jiminy Cricket re-organizing his [[Jiminy's Journal]] and finds a mysterious message which was later digitized by King Mickey to create a Sora out of data in hopes to discover when the entry was added by reliving the moment. In episode four, King Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Jiminy and Pete are sucked into the data world of Disney Castle and in the real Disney Castle, Chip and Dale are trying to contact them. At the end of the game, when the data world is completely debugged and erased, they are sent back to the real Disney Castle, where King Mickey writes a letter to the real Sora about his findings (Terra, Aqua and Ven) and sends it to him in a bottle.
