Aldera was the capital city of the planet Alderaan.[3] It was built on an island in the middle of a lake,[5] in the vicinity of snow-capped mountains, one of which was the Appenza Peak.[3] A scenic city, it featured a collection of gleaming, rounded, white structures that included the Royal Palace. Crevasse City, the first and largest of Alderaan's canyon cities, depended on Aldera's own spaceport facilities.[5]
The capital was lost along with the rest of Alderaan in 0 BBY, when Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin ordered the Death Star to destroy the planet.[2]
