You’ve probably seen castles in movies. Their walls are very tall. Flags fly from their towers. Many castles were built in Europe during medieval(中世纪的) times, from about 1100 to about 1550. Castles were the homes of a lord(贵族), his family and his servants. Some of the lord’s soldiers might have lived there, too.
People built castles during medieval times for a few reasons. One was that there were no police to keep them safe. Another reason was to show how rich they were.
A castle’s high walls allowed guards to see for miles. Many castles were also surrounded by a ditch(壕沟) of water called a moat(护城河). To get into the castle, visitors had to cross the moat from a bridge. The bridge was lowered to let people in and raised to keep them out of the castle.
There were few windows in a castle’s high stone walls. That was to keep out enemies and to keep out the weather. Windows had no glass, only wooden shutters(百叶窗) to keep out the wind and rain. Castles were cold and damp(潮湿的). The heat came only from fireplaces. Light came from the sun or from torches.
Most medieval castles had a room called the Great Hall. Meals and meetings were held there. Large castles might also have ponds, gardens, and houses for horses. Usually, the cows, sheep, and pigs were kept outside the castle.
Today, you can visit ruined castles in many countries in Europe. If you look carefully, you can probably imagine a king and queen feasting(宴会) in the Great Hall.
