Why were castles built and when were the earliest ones built what were new and old castles made of?
The earliest castles were Norman Motte and Bailey castles during the Medieval period of 1066 to 1153. Motte and Bailey were built on top on hilltops and a high and extremely steep mound was built which had very steep sides and a Tower was built on top of it. The process of excavating the earth to build the massive mound, which was the motte, created a highly convenient defensive ditch at the base of the motte and surrounding the whole of the bailey. The ditch became known as the Moat. These castles were made of wood. From 1154-1485 the castles builders were the Plantagenet English Kings. These great old castles were built for Medieval warfare and defence and new parts of the castle were designed for this. These were made of stone instead of wood because wood caught fire in battle.

Why did people build castles?
Kings, nobles and lesser lords built castles to house and protect themselves, their families, staff, soldiers, livestock and horses. Within the castle, in addition to the lord's residence, there were storehouses, stables, bakery, kitchens, and houses and quarters for the staff and solders.The Normans built the first real castles after winning the Battle of Hastings in 1066. They needed to house and protect themselves and control their new kingdom. They quickly set about building wooden Motte and Bailey castles. These were later replaced with stone castles because there was less risk of fire and they offered better protection from attack. Though built primarily for protection and defense in holding down a conquered territory, castles also became an effective way to intimidate local people into servitude or forced labor.The 'great age of castles' began approximately 1,000 years ago and lasted for nearly 500 years. Medieval castles continued to be built from the time of the Norman Conquest (1066) to the start of the Tudor era (1485). Though Kings, nobles, and lesser lords, originally built castles for protection, over time comfortable homes evolved within those fortified walls. Castles became a strong symbol of wealth, power and control.To view the difference between an initial motte-and-bailey wooden castle and an early stone castle, see Sources and Related Links further down this page.For the protection and safety of the rich and the central point for local medieval governments.well one of the ways that kings built castles is to threat the enemy or authorities it shows power and shows that you have good subjects.people also built castles to protect themselves from other people and also to give other people the sense that they are in power and ability to show off.1.Castles were built because they were a safe place/base for the knights and lords2.But the motte which is safe place/base for the villigers or for the poor3.The Castles were a good way of reminding the english who was in control4.Castleshelped the landlords protect their new lands and made it hard for the attackers to fight back5.Castles were a base for attacking areas nearby+++Somewhere near but point (2) is wrong.
