He crafted two pair of wings (one for him, one for his son, Icarus), our of feathers, wood and beeswax. Using them, he flew away with his son.
King Minos recognizes Daedalus's cleverness through his innovative designs and inventions, particularly the intricate Labyrinth built to contain the Minotaur. Minos appreciates Daedalus's ability to solve complex problems, such as creating a space that is nearly impossible to escape. Additionally, Minos's reliance on Daedalus for guidance and his willingness to employ him for critical tasks further demonstrate his admiration for Daedalus's intellect and ingenuity.
The Labyrinth, built by Daedalus. The Minotaur was kept in this maze until Theseus killed it.
If you mean his wings, then it was to escape his imprisonment by King Minos for the knowledge he might give out about the labyrinth (which Daedalus had created). If you mean the labyrinth, then it is because King Minos made him create it so he could imprison his wife's son, the Minotaur.
the Labyrinth (where later the Minotaur was confined)
Daedalus and his son Icarus had been imprisoned in a tall tower that structurally contained no stairs and no doors. The only window to the outside world was just that- a window. However, other tales suggest that Daedalus and his son escaped by sea, out-sailing King Minos's ships by being the first ever to attach "sails" on a boat.
King Minos became angry with Daedalus because he believed Daedalus had aided Theseus in escaping the Labyrinth, which Daedalus had designed. This betrayal undermined Minos's authority and the security of the Labyrinth, where he had imprisoned the Minotaur. In retaliation, Minos imprisoned Daedalus and his son Icarus in the very Labyrinth that Daedalus had created, seeking to prevent further escape or treachery.
Minos imprisoned Daedalus in the labyrinth because Daedalus had helped Theseus escape from the labyrinth after he killed the Minotaur. Minos, the king of Crete, sought to keep the labyrinth's design a secret and viewed Daedalus as a threat due to his knowledge of the intricate maze. By confining him within the very structure he created, Minos aimed to prevent Daedalus from revealing its secrets.

Daedalus was cursed by King Minos of Crete. After helping Theseus escape the Labyrinth and revealing its secrets, Minos sought revenge on Daedalus for his betrayal.

Daedalus was shut up in a tower by King Minos of Crete because he had helped Theseus escape the Labyrinth, which Daedalus had designed to contain the Minotaur. Minos sought to punish Daedalus for his betrayal and to prevent him from revealing the secrets of the Labyrinth. The tower served as both imprisonment and a means to keep Daedalus from aiding anyone else in their escape. Ultimately, this confinement led Daedalus to invent a plan for escape by creating wings for himself and his son Icarus.
