How medieval Time castles Were built • Castles needed surrounding landscape (to have a very large amount of protection. ) • They were made out of wood and built on hills also known as mottes. • Almost all of the castles in Europe were made during the 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th centuries. • All medieval castles made by stone were built by bare hands.
When castles Were built • Castles started being built during and after the death of Christ. • It got as far as the 16th century when others were still building castles. • Others think castles in Europe started being built from the 1100’s to the 1500’s.
What jobs People that Lived in a Castle had? • Most servants were men- men do lots of work women couldn’t do • women had to cook and clean every day (if they didn’t have the women most men would probably starve to death even though they know how to hunt. )
