Medieval Times: Knights and Castles
During the Middle Ages, castles were more than just fortresses to protect against invaders. They were also homes for lords, ladies, and their families, as well as their servants and other workers. Life inside a medieval castle was structured and hierarchical, with everyone having their own specific roles and duties.
The lord of the castle was the highest authority, and his word was law. He was responsible for the safety and security of the castle and its inhabitants, as well as maintaining good relations with other lords and nobles. The lady of the castle was responsible for the domestic affairs, such as managing the household and overseeing the education of the children.
The knights were the elite warriors who served the lord and lady of the castle. They were trained from a young age in the art of warfare and chivalry, and they were expected to uphold the chivalric code of honor and loyalty. They also acted as the lord's bodyguards and served as judges in disputes between the castle's inhabitants.
The servants and workers were the lower class inhabitants of the castle. They performed menial tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and farming. They were often treated poorly and were not allowed to leave the castle without permission.
Life inside a medieval castle was not easy by any means. The castle was often cold and damp, with little privacy and few amenities. However, it was also a place of camaraderie and shared purpose, with everyone working together for the common good of the castle and its inhabitants.
