They did this because if anyone in the country protest about the king they can build castles for the protection and for a battle with any other country. They changed over time because some of the stone would get old and rot and also to improve the castles protection.
Did you know that Castles took over 20 years to build!
one
coz the weapons to destroy dem have changed over time so the castles change, when the castles were made out of wood the attackers burned it down but then a boff came along and said "why dont we build the castles out of brick so we dont get burned down"
because weapons destroied them over time
it changed because wood is out of style
They has to pray
There are over 20 castles in Portugal.
The Mott and Bailey Castles were change because over time they realised that there were to many disadvantages and easy to attak.
King William I (William the conqueror) first introduced castles into Britain in the form of Motte and Bailey castles after he first took over the Country in 1066. King William I needed some castles that could be built quickly and cheaply after in the war in order to stop rebellions. Motte and Bailey castles were ideal as they were made out of wood which were both cheap and quick to build.
The Normans built Motte and bailey castles all over England to show that they are ruling and to show their powerthey built them to keep an eye on soldiers coming to attack and defend the vvillages.
Stone Keep castles (Stone castles) are quite a few centuries old. They were built in the 11th century by King William I (William the conqueror) not long after he took over Britain after the battle of hastings. Stone castles however, weren't the first castles William built in Britain. He first built Motte and Bailey castles. The reasons for this were that they were cheap and easy to build as they were made out of wood. He decided to build Stone castles to replace many of the Motte and Bailey castles for many reasons including these: * Stone castles don't burn * Stone castles don't rot within a few years but will carry on standing for centuries to come * Stone castles were heavier, making them much stronger
they thougt things over the castles
