About this world

Seed 3598728236 is a taiga village seed for Minecraft Java 1.20.1 with a ruined portal in the middle of the village. The village sits at 0, 66, 0 inside a dense spruce forest. The portal ruin, with obsidian in its frame and netherrack around its base, is a few blocks from those coordinates. A river runs past the east side, and a tall rock spire stands to the north.

The spruce trees hide most of the dark wood houses from the side, so the overhead shot gives the clearest view of the layout. We confirmed the village and portal on the official 1.20.1 server and took every screenshot in the 1.20.1 game client. The seed is entry 16 on akirby80's list of the top 20 village seeds for 1.20.

Questions

Where is the ruined portal in seed 3598728236?

In the middle of the taiga village, a few blocks southeast of 0, 66, 0. The server located it 3 blocks from those coordinates.

How do I find the houses in the spruce forest?

Fly above the trees in Creative, or follow the dirt paths out from the portal. From the side, the spruce canopy hides most of the roofs.

Does this taiga village seed work on Bedrock or in 1.21?

We only tested Java 1.20.1. Bedrock Edition and later Java versions may produce a different world, so confirm the village before you commit to a base.

What we checked

On 2026-09-29 we generated a fresh world with this seed on Mojang’s official Java 1.20.1 server (server jar SHA-1 84194a2f286ef7c14ed7ce0090dba59902951553) and read the structures it generated. Every listed structure has a generated piece within 16 blocks of its coordinates. The screenshots come from the Java 1.20.1 game client with default textures, taken at noon in clear weather.

This check covers these structures in Java 1.20.1 only. It does not cover the world spawn, chest loot or other versions. How we check seeds
