Castles!

I post about castles, a lot. I figured I may as well just make a list of all those posts where castles show up.

I also added some posts with city walls because those are awesome, too. Enjoy!

A wonderful Spanish castle for reference. In case you forgot what a castle was.

 

Check out all these posts on those wonderful fortifications!
