No, all castles are different in some way. These are the different types of castles: * Motte and Bailey castles (made out of wood) * Stone keep castles or just stone castles (made out of stone) * Concentric castles (also made out of stone)
Bricks ...that's what castles were made out of
the later castles were created out of stone but were then made out of concrete.
what were the first castles made from?
Early castles were made of wood, and were built on small hills. Later castles were usually made of stone, though when a castle was needed quickly it might still be made of wood, and some castles were made of brick.
This depends on what type of castle your referring to. In the Norman times, there were two different types of castles built. There were Motte and Bailey castles and Stone keep castles (Stone castles). The Motte and Bailey castles were made out of wood and the Stone keep castles were made out of stone (obviously).
Castles were made out of wood because there was probably no other material!
11th century castles were made out of wood.
It is that they have been made into concentric castles
Castles Made of Sand - novel - was created in 2002.
stone
Usually from stone, but early motte and baily forts were made of wood. Some fortresses in Eastern Europe were made of brick, since stone is scarce there.
