The term "castle" originates from the Latin word "castellum," which means "fortified place." Castles were built primarily during the Middle Ages as fortified structures to provide defense against invasions and to serve as residences for nobility. The architectural features of castles, such as thick walls, towers, and moats, were designed for protection and control of the surrounding land. Over time, the term evolved to refer not only to the military function but also to the grandeur and status associated with these structures.
