Ruined portal finder

Enter your seed to list the ruined portals closest to world spawn or your own coordinates. Each result gives its coordinates, distance and direction. The search runs in your browser with the generation model for Java 1.16.1–26.3 and Bedrock 1.18.0–26.50.

About these results

Each location is a prediction from the generation model for the version you choose. It is not a check in the game. The model applies placement and biome rules, but terrain and later generation can still stop a structure from generating.

World spawn is estimated from the seed. If you know your spawn point, or want results near where you are now, search from your own coordinates.

In the Nether, searching from spawn starts below your Overworld spawn: its X and Z divided by 8, where a portal built at spawn would lead. Each result also gives the matching Overworld coordinates (multiplied by 8).

Pick the version your world was created in. Structures generate when chunks are first loaded, so areas explored in an older version keep that version's structures. Bedrock results come from a separate community model that has not been independently checked against the game.

Ruined Portal facts

A broken Nether portal among scattered masonry, netherrack, and treasure. Players salvage obsidian and gold, collect lodestones, and repair the frames that can be fixed for Nether travel.

Overworld portals can sit on the surface, under terrain, partly buried, or on the ocean floor. Underground ones start at Y=15 and mountain ones at Y=70. In the Nether they appear between Y=27 and Y=100, or between Y=32 and Y=100 when placed in an air pocket.
