Title says it all, i have always been fascinated with castles, perhaps being born and living in England, and see tons of castles has something to do with it.

Castles are, without a doubt, the shit.

I was born in Germany, and went to Neuschwanstein when I was little... so it's def my favorite.

Soooo BADASS! Those Mansion/Castle's are cool, i like the medieval type's best though.

Whats great about those is..how do you attack it lol, like the one in my post, they always build them surrounded by water and up on steep terrain, so you can only get to it via the bridge, good luck with that when you got guys shooting arrows/dropping rocks on you.

...where, before there was a road and houses etc. it was just an outright fortress on flat land, the one you posted is HUGE and soo tall, and not so much for fighting, but it has one hell of a defense.

Also, maybe you will like this(some of these i took these myself last time i was in London) this is the Tower of London(built in 11th century)....

Im kinda into history a bit, but i have been there and seen the Crown Jewels, literally worth so much, they are priceless. (534 karat diamond):eek:

castles are cool...it would feel kinda creepy to live in one of those things, if you think about it
