Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, they offer little protec tion against attacks. It is easy to de fend a fortress, but fortresses are not designed with the comfort of a king or queen in mind.

When comes to structures that are both majestic and well- fortified, the classic European castle is the pinnacle of design.

Across the ages castles changed, developed and eve ntually fell out of use, but they still command the fascination of our culture.

Castles were originally built in Eng land by Norman in vaders in 1066. As William the Conque ror advanced through England, he fortified key positions to secure the land he had taken.

The cas tles he built allowed the Noman lords to re tre at to safety when threatened by Eng lish rebellion. Castles also served bases of ope ration for offensive attacks. Troops we re s ummoned to, organized around, and deployed from castles. In this way castles served both offensive and de fensive roles in military ope rations.
