Castles and Knights the First Stone Castles Were Built in the 11Th and 12Th Century
Spheres of Medieval Life Castles and Knights The first stone castles were built in the 11th and 12th century. Those before were simpler defences, as described here in a medieval document: “The […] nobles […] much given to feuds* and bloodshed* fortify themselves. … These strongholds helped them to intimidate and suppress the lower ranks of people. They heap up a mound*, and dig around it […] a ditch […]; round the summit of the mound they put up a palisade of timber* as a wall. 5 Inside the palisade they erect a house.” [Life of St John, Bishop of Terouanne] These first fortifications were a slow response to the invasion of Western Europe by various tribes and peoples which had begun in the 3rd and 4th century. More attacks followed in the next centuries. Castles offered protection not just to the Lord and his family, but also to the people from the surrounding countryside. A well-known example of a stone castle in Germany 10 is Eltz Castle (Burg Eltz), first mentioned in 1137. Located in a wooden area near the river Mosel, it has escaped destruction in contrast to many others in Germany. It was erected on an ancient trade route connecting the Mosel with the Eifel area. But in spite of 15 its elevated location on a hill, seventy metres above the river Eltz, the castle is actually on lower ground than the hills around it, which would have caused problems in the case of a siege*. Therefore Eltz Castle served more as a fortified residence than as a fortress*. 20 Most castles were strongly fortified.
