Castles were built for protection of people and animals. They began as wooden compounds called " mote and Bailey." The mote was a hill and the Bailey part was the buildings. The first ones were wooden and it wasn't until gunpowder came along they became stone. The existing mote and Bailey often built a stone face in front of the wooden walls so when an attacker wanted to take the castle he thought it was stone. The castle also provided the owner with a powerful reputation in the lands he controlled.
