Why did the they make houses with straw in the medieval times?
They did not usually make whole houses out of straw, just the roofs. A roof made of straw is called a thatched roof. In a thatched roof, bundles of straw point down the roof, and rain runs down them, without getting into the interior of the building. A thatched roof provides very good insulation, and a cottage with such a roof can be quite cozy. Thatched roofs are still being made today, but they are very expensive. Most of the houses in the Middle Ages were built of wattle and daub. The builder made a frame of timber, and the open areas in the frame were filled in with wattle, which was woven from strips of wood that were narrow enough to be flexible for weaving. The walls were finally filled in with daub, which was mostly made of mud.In some places, where there were insufficient supplies of straw, wood, and so on, cottages were made of stone. Even roofs were made of stone in places.Brick was used in many places, but not usually inexpensive housing. Believe it or not, some castles were built of brick.Log cabins were also built, in northern Europe.
