Castles played an important role in feudalism The word “castle” comes from a Latin word that means fortress A castle helped a king or vassal defend the land where the castle stood It also served as a place to house the king
or vassal’s army, weapons, and food A castle was also the center of local government Although they were frequently attacked, castles were the safest dwellings of the time A castle was typically built on the top of a hill to protect
the community from invasions Soldiers on the walls kept a lookout for attacking armies
Life inside the castle walls was difficult and crowded There was not much land to build on, so people built houses that were narrow and tall Many buildings were five or six stories Streets were also narrow and dirty People would throw their garbage and waste out into the streets Disease spread quickly At night the streets were dark and unsafe People would rarely go out after dark without their servants When they did, they carried torches or candles Fire was one of the greatest dangers for a medieval town Most houses were made of wood Only the wealthy had stone and brick houses One city in France burned to the ground six times between 1200 and 1255 CE!
