Norman castles changed from Motte and Bailey castles which were made out of wood to Stone Keep castles made out of stone. They changed the castles in this way because of these reasons: * Stones stronger than wood * Stone, unlike wood, doesn't burn * Wood rots withing a few years but Stone will last for centuries * Stone Keep castles had higher up walls meaning that attackers couldn't fire arrows at them * Stone Keep castles had really tall towers that the defenders of the castles could easily fire off, but there's no way that the attackers would be able to fire up at them
