The purpose of a square keep castle was primarily defensive, serving as a fortified stronghold for a lord and their household. Its robust, rectangular design allowed for better defense against attacks, with thick stone walls and minimal entry points. Additionally, it functioned as a residence, administrative center, and symbol of power, asserting the lord's authority over the surrounding land. Square keeps often included features like a great hall, living quarters, and storage areas, making them self-sufficient during sieges.
