Some of the most beautiful castles in the world.
A castle is a fortified residence or fortified town, typically of the Middle Ages, with thick walls and heavy gates. Castles were built by nobles and royalty to protect their families and possessions from invaders. They were often situated on hilltops or high ground, with a good view of the surrounding area.
Castles vary in size, from small fortresses to large palaces. They may have a moat, a drawbridge, towers, and other defensive features. Some castles were built for defense, while others were built for luxury and comfort.
These castles are not only breathtakingly beautiful, but they also have interesting histories.
