The castles were shaped like circles, instead of squares because circles were harder to climb. The castle defenses also helped protect the people in the castle.
It forced people to make the walls stronger and out of stone instead of wood like the motte and bailey castle. The trebuchet was very powerful so if you were making the walls stronger you would of had to really make it strong!
Most castles were built in the 16 hundreds.

The oldest medieval castles were made in the 9th century AD. They were made until the end of the middle ages.
There were various castle weaknesses. It depends what castle type you are talking about. Wooden castles were used, but had the obvious downfall of no fire resistance, so stone was used instead. Then, because the corners of their square castles were the weakest parts, the builders made circular castles.

Castles were mainly used to protect Kings and people of royalty within the kingdom. They were also a shelter for the villagers, incase an invasion/war was about to take place. Castles hold prisoners and they hold valuable resources for the people. Castles were also a place of entertainment.
