Looks like an interesting palace. Have never been there. Very quick puzzle to do.

These castles are fascinating - I wonder how they kept warm, probably very romantic open fireplaces :)

Good one Mr Twain. Take care and God bless. Hugs.

Aussie, there were huge fireplaces in just about every room. Walls were hung with heavy tapestries to block the cold from the stone and also to stop drafts. Beds (for the wealthy, at any rate) were warmed with pans of coals, a tradition that carried on until the late 1800s. Some rooms were simply heated with braziers - again, open bowls of burning coals. It's no wonder people wore layers of clothing; it was a chilly place to live!

Plus winged chairs to keep draughts off'n your neck, and footstools to keep your feet above the draughts blowing along over the floor.

This seems like a rather small castle compared to some we have done. But very well kept.

I agree - it's almost like a Keep, a fortified smaller structure used for defense, usually placed around the edges of a holding (country, estate, etc.) It was generally staffed with a small company of soldiers and not meant for large groups or gracious living.

I believe you are correct. However, the rich occupants of the castle must have valued the building and staffers highly, as they were their first line of defense in dangerous times.

My husband and I really enjoy castle tours. It is fun to imagine how people who lived in the castle used the spaces in days of old. Many of those open to the public have lovely gardens and expansive porches where tourists can sit a spell and experience outdoor castle living.

I wish I had visited more castles when I was able to travel to Europe. I did visit the Hohensalzburg in Salzburg and The Louvre in Paris, which was originally a castle.
