'''Shhwonk Fortress''' (Japanese スットンとりで ''Sutton Toride'') is a fortress in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' where the [[Moon Stone]] and the [[Sun Stone]] are kept. It's past [[Petalburg]] and a few smaller stone fortresses. The Stone Keys are used to open the pipe to [[Hooktail Castle]].

Before [[Mario]] was allowed entrance, he had to participate in a quiz show with a [[Thwomp]]. After passing the quiz, Mario was allowed entrance into the Fortress, which was teeming with [[Fuzzy|Fuzzies]]. After collecting the Sun and Moon Stone, Mario had to fight a [[Gold Fuzzy]] in order to get out.
Long ago, Shhwonk Fortress was a place of relief from monster invasions for Petalburgers. Past this, however, monsters invaded the fortress, and traversing to them was actually outlawed without permission from Mayor [[Kroop]]. It is unknown when the fortress was built, but at least one of the fortresses located in the path to it is estimated by [[Goombella]] to be about a thousand years old.

It is possible that Shhwonk Fortress is named after the similar-sounding [[Whomp's Fortress]], a [[Whomp]]-filled mountain area Mario explored during the events of ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. Shhwonk Fortress may also be named after its Thwomp guardian; both "Thwomp!" and "Shhwonk!" are onomatopoeia for the same thing (an object crashing into the ground from above).
