The circular keep castle, often associated with the Norman architectural style, began to be developed in the late 11th century, following the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. One of the earliest examples is the White Tower at the Tower of London, which was completed around 1100. These castles were designed for defense and residence, showcasing the power of the nobility at that time.
