Beren (Third Age 2655[1] – 2763,[2] aged 108 years) was the nineteenth Ruling Steward of Gondor.

History

Beren succeeded his father Egalmoth at his death in T.A. 2743.[2]

Beren spent much of his rule fighting the Corsairs of Umbar in southern Gondor, for the land was assailed by three great fleets from Umbar and from Harad. During the Long Winter of T.A. 2758 - 2759, Rohan came under attack from the Dunlendings, but as both nations were under attack neither could help the other. Therefore when Saruman suddenly appeared and requested leave to dwell in Isengard, Beren gladly gave the Wizard the keys to Orthanc.[3]

Beren was followed by his son Beregond at his death in 2763.[2]
