Game of Thrones Season 5: New Structures Being Built In Dubrovnik

Season five of Game of Thrones is currently filming and we’re starting to learn more and more about the story that will be involved and what characters will face certain challenges as the season unfolds.

The latest bit of story filming news comes from our friends at  Englishman in Dubrovnik (spoilers at the link) who passed along some photos of new potential set structures being constructed. 

With season five of the popular HBO series Game of Thrones set to be filmed in Dubrovnik again at the end of this month it appears that the island of Lokrum will again be a location. Two large wooden constructions have appeared in the middle of the island near the Benedictine Monastery. An area of land has been cleared for the buildings and an ancient stone wall and steps in the vicinity have also been repaired and cleaned. Directly between the two wooden buildings stands a palm tree, it what seems like a new location for the fifth season of Game of Thrones. Lokrum, which is situated 600 metres from the historic walled city of Dubrovnik, has already been used as a location for Game of Thrones.

There have already been reports of a spolilery (Is spoilery a word? It is now.) nature circulating the web about one scene in particular that will be shot in Dubrovnik. The scene is mentioned at the link if you care to read about it.

Not much can be gleaned from these structures as far as we can tell but they will certainly be something we will continue to keep an eye on as they come together.

There are two more photos at Englishman in Dubrovnik.

Any ideas on what these structures will be used for?
