With their strong gates and high towers, medieval castles are not only an impressive sight today, but served as unconquerable fortresses for many kingdoms and realms over the centuries.

Let us uncover the secrets of how they withstood countless wars, sieges and battles in the feudal world of the European Middle Ages. How and why were these mighty fortresses built? What rooms could be found in their interior? And what was life like for the knights and noblemen that lived inside their stone keeps and grand chateaus?

To change that, this channel will try to shed light on all the mysteries that are hidden within those amazing structures and provide you with quality documentaries as well as virtual tours of real medieval castles!
