Castle Residents

Castles were very VERY large in medieval times, and still are today. And also were very very crowded!! The reason of that is that the Lord was very friendly about letting people into his home….weird right. Well not that weird if you knew the reasons, he of course let them into his home for special reasons just like we do today like maids, servants, cooks, and even babysitters. But in medieval times there were ALOT more people that lived in a castle than just servants and maids. Some of those people were the Constable, the constable’s wife, a nurse, soldiers, worthy men training to become soldiers, blacksmith, groomers, a steward, a priest, and prisoners .Of course the Lord and his Lady  live there…Duh. Also the lord would let entertainers come and visit every once in a while like jugglers, musicians, and jesters FUN!!!....not really right. I mean if I lived there I would have personal bubble issues.
