What is used to cover the castle floor during the medieval ages?
1st Answer:Straw or rushes which they left for a year before it was changed. It was pretty stinky since things lived in it, they threw food down, and the dogs would do their stuff in/around it. Add the tallow candles to the scents and people not washing themselves or clothing and it was a pretty stinky place.2nd Answer:The pictures we have from the Middle Ages of people in castles and manor houses show wooden or tile floors with no cover. Carpets were used, especially after crusaders brought back examples from the Middle East, but they were not usually put on the floor, being put on the walls instead. There are modern references to straw mats covering floors in the Middle Ages, but I have been unable to find any medieval source indicating these were actually used.The idea that loose straw was thrown down to cover smelly messes as they were made, accumulating over time, seems to have originated with Erasmus, who was writing after the Middle ages had ended. It appears in a letter to a friend about the quality of English accommodations. I believe this was intended to be a comic description intended to say that an English inn was no better than a badly kept stable.
