Adventures After SteemFest 2: Castle Blast 2

Castles, man.


For real tho!

Check out this hot little number:



Those stone steps lead up to the wall, where I assume somebody once kept watch.

The wall has the classic castley top - those openings are called embrasures, & the wall parts between the openings are called merlons. The walkway up there is the rampart.

REAL CASTLES!!!!

OMG!!!!

Cool!

Looks like an old fort :)

Yes of course, it's a castle!

But I guess fort and castle are different :P

A fortress is a building designed to be defended, which means it was very hard for enemies to get inside. ... There is little difference between a fortress and a castle. Fortresses normally have thick stone walls, thicker but less tall than in castles so artillery cannot break them.

Whatever it is it's freaking cool! Love castles never been to one 😒

Nice!!! Here in my city (Pistoia, Italy) we have a similar buildings, it's a medieval fortress called Santa Barbara ^_^
