How to use the Minecraft seed map

  1. Pick the edition and version that generated your world: Java 1.20 through 26.3, or Bedrock 1.21 through 26.52.
  2. Paste your seed into the seed bar and press View. No seed yet? The random button next to it rolls a new one.
  3. Switch between the Overworld, the Nether and the End with the dimension selector.
  4. In the Structures tab, turn on only the markers you are looking for: villages, strongholds, ancient cities, trial chambers, monuments and more.
  5. Click a marker to read its coordinates, or use Go to X, Z to jump to a position.
  6. Press Share to copy a link that reopens the same seed, version, position and zoom.

Frequently asked questions

How do I find my Minecraft seed?

On Java Edition, open the world and type /seed in chat, then click the number to copy it. On Bedrock Edition, the seed is shown in the world settings under Game. Paste it into the seed bar above the map.

Are the structure locations exact?

Biomes and structure positions follow Minecraft’s own world generation, so most markers match the game block for block. A few structures also depend on the terrain at that spot and can fail to generate, so check anything you plan a long trip around in game first.

Do Java and Bedrock give the same world for the same seed?

Since 1.18 the two editions share almost the same terrain and biomes for a seed, but structures such as villages, strongholds and ancient cities are placed by a different algorithm on each edition. Choose the edition you actually play, or the markers will be in the wrong place.

Can I see slime chunks and stronghold rings?

Yes. Open the Layers tab to overlay slime chunks, the stronghold rings and terrain shading on the map. Slime chunks are a fixed grid per seed, so they line up exactly with the game.

Can I look at the seed in 3D?

Press 3D in the header to fly over the real terrain of the same seed in your browser, with the same structures marked. It needs a device with working WebGL; the 2D map works everywhere.

Does the map work with Terralith or Tectonic?

Yes, for Java. Open Datapack in the seed bar and pick Terralith or Tectonic, or load your own worldgen datapack zip, and the biome map is redrawn with that datapack’s generation.

Is the seed map free, and do I need to install anything?

It is free and runs in any modern browser on desktop or phone. The map is calculated on your own device, so there is no download, no mod and no account needed.
