Meninges are the three protective membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. They consist of the dura mater (outer layer), arachnoid mater (middle layer), and pia mater (inner layer). These membranes provide structural support, protect the central nervous system, and help contain cerebrospinal fluid, which cushions the brain and spinal cord. Inflammation of the meninges, known as meningitis, can be a serious medical condition.
