I am very grateful for his useful guidance. Annotation The bachelor thesis deals with the history of British castles in the Middle Ages. The research concerns with the role of castles, their construction, important historical events and key persons. The chapters are divided according to the main roles and events in the chronological order. The first chapter analyses the purpose of the initial castles. The second chapter analyses castles in wars, but also as residences in peace. In the final part of the thesis a detailed look is taken at the strategy of taking control over the Welsh and Scottish people by means of the castles. It also examines Robert Bruce's policy of destroying the castles in Scotland. The thesis focuses on the importance of building castles and analyses why they are an integral part of British history. The books by Christopher Gravett and Norman J.G. Pounds are used as the main sources of the historical facts.
