Castles began as simple wooden structures, but through the years they became complex stone structures. Castles were built to ensure that the king would be able to keep control of his land. The king gave his lords and knights the right to certain areas of land. He did this so that they could help him to control his land. These lords and knights built castles on the lands given to them by the king. These castles gave them a place to live and a means to protect themselves and the people living in their land.
