Before the Season 2 of ‘The Witcher’ hit Netflix, it was revealed that the newest season will give viewers a glimpse about how Witchers live at Kaer Morhen and the place’s iconic history will also be explored in the second edition. We saw a glimpse of Kaer Morhen in the animated movie ‘The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf’, but the series promises to give us a more detailed look at the legendary place.

The makers did not waste much time in giving fans what they needed and showed Kaer Morhen in the second episode of the latest edition. However, as soon as Geralt (Henry Cavill) and Ciri (Freya Allen) set their foot inside the castle, trouble follows the entire pack of Witchers. Initially, we are introduced to several Witchers who have managed to stay alive, and then, we get a look at their leader Vesemir, the menacing Witcher who is considered to be a father figure.
