43196

LEGO set 43196 represents Belle and the Beast's Castle within the Disney Princess theme. Released in 2021, it contains 505 pieces and includes 7 named figures or characters from the Disney film setting.

Set 43196, Belle and the Beast's Castle, belongs to the Disney theme, specifically Disney Princess. It depicts the castle associated with Beauty and the Beast, the main setting for Belle, the Beast and the enchanted household characters. The model is therefore tied to a recognizable location from the story rather than to a generic palace design.

The set has 505 pieces and 7 named figures or characters: Belle, Medium Blue Dress, Belle, Bright Light Orange and Bright Light Yellow Full Dress with Roses, Open Mouth, Beast, Medium Blue Legs, Dark Purple Cape, Hair Bow, Lumière, Small, 3 Flames, Cogsworth, Short, Gold Top, Madame de la Grande Bouche and Mrs. Potts, Lavender Lid. This line-up covers both the principal characters and several enchanted residents of the castle.

It suits play scenes, display and Disney Princess collecting, especially for builders focusing on film locations. Within the broader Disney range, it can be placed as the Beauty and the Beast castle entry, alongside other princess sets, castle builds and character-based scenes from animated Disney stories.
