When the they found that the wood caught fire they started to build castles out Stone. After a while people destroyed castles using Gun Powder. Then after this the castles lost there usefulness.

How were castles in medieval times built?

The Motte and Bailey was quick to construct, but was generally made of wood. This made it extremely vulnerable to fire-flinging attacks - and also quite temporary, too. Generally, they were built of sandstone or limestone, but the whole castle wouldn't have been made of stone - it was expensive and unwieldy. Costs would have been cut by using wooden roofs, partitions, and supports.

How were castles in the 1700s fireproofed?

In the 1700s, castles were typically built using stone and brick, materials that are inherently more fire-resistant than wood. To further enhance fireproofing, builders employed techniques such as using slate roofs, stone chimneys, and firebreaks—areas devoid of flammable materials. Additionally, the interiors were often designed to minimize the risk of fire, with less use of wood and the inclusion of stone or brick fireplaces. Regular maintenance and inspections also played a role in preventing fires from spreading.

I think there are castles in MySims Kingdom, but I don't think that there are castles in MySims, normal. You could probably build a castle-type house though, by using a few round blocks on the corners for towers, and painting it in stone.
