Sorry for the delay, exams, homework and the usual stuff kept me from posting.
But here is the ridle.

Once, I was a guardian of the seven.
And a watcher of roads.
Twice, I held an object of great importance.
The nine attacked me many times.
Now, I'm a mere shadow of the past.

What am I?

Probably it won't be him, but Elrond comes to my mind

It's a fortress/city I think. Erebor ? Osgiliath ?

Perhaps.. try being a bit more specific.
It isn't erebor or osgiliath btw.
I hadn't thought of it but if you give the riddle another interpretation Osgiliath is correct.
So if no one finds the correct answer in a week, it's your turn.

Yes, thought about that to, but 'the nine attacked my MANY times' makes it look a bit more unbelivable
If it was 'the nine attacked me ones' it could have point on the fellowship.

yes, Amon sul or Weathertop is the correct answer.

It held a palantir (guardian of the seven)
You have a clear view over the great east road from up there. (watcher of roads)
It held a palantir and frodo was there with the ring. (Twice, I held an object of great importance.)
It was attacked several times during the wars with Ruhdaur/Angmar because of the palantir and the nine atacked both Gandalf and Frodo on weathertop.
(The nine attacked me many times.)
And now it's just a ruin instead of the great watchtower it was. (Now, I'm a mere shadow of the past.)
Your turn. :)

Let's continue with these riddles :P

I have no top or bottom but can hold flesh, bones and blood all at the same time.

What, or who am I?

Amarthadan got it ^^

...it had to be related to LotR, meaning skin, although possible, wouldn't correspond well xD

My turn! :)

The original editor of The Lord of the Rings "corrected" Tolkien's plural dwarves to dwarfs. According to Tolkien, the "real 'historical'" plural of dwarf is ...
