I need to know what all castles have,
i havent found any topic of that,or some internet links and i can find
------------------
Philip Davis A quick and simple answer is that all castles have a home surrounded by walls you walk on top of. The walls don't have to be of stone and many where o earth and wood but they do need to have room for someone to walk along them so they can repel attackers.
As with all quick and simple answers to complex questions this is far from complete and very debatable.

And as I rode by Dalton-Hall Beneath the turrets high, A maiden on the castle-wall Was singing merrily: The Outlaw by Sir Walter Scott

Walchelin This site is mainly about British castles, but it has a lot of useful general information that will help. http://www.castles-of-britain.com/castle6.htm
It should give you a good start.

What were castles gratiest time ?

Walchelin I think most would agree that the late 13th century was the greatest time for castles. Beaumaris in Wales (begun in 1295) is often named the masterpiece of castle construction. You can read why here: http://www.castlewales.com/beaumar.html
And about the master builder who created it here: http://www.castlewales.com/jsgeorge.html
