Bastions of Power: The Real Function of Europe Castles | Full Documentary

Castles were bastions of power. Yet, what if the enemy was at the gates? Our documentary examines the military function of castles from the 11th to the 16th century. New weapons called for ever new solutions by their defenders. Our journey takes us all through Europe, from the White Tower in London to revolutionary Chateau Gaillard in Normandy and to the castle of the last of Europe’s robber knights.

Excellent documentary ….The German archeologist featured just kills me : He looks like an unmade bed 😂

[@jackstarr4726]

To have such a fortified building in Germany for the secret police shows they fear resistance to their genocidé of the natives.

This is one of my favorites. I've been fascinated by Castle's since I was a a kid a million years ago 😅. I could have watched 6 hours of this, and I've seen dozens of doc's on the subject. Thanks for this one!! 🖖😁🤘🕊️

Every big civilisation known to man has been in wars. Egypt, romans, mayas, incas, chinese, mongolians, greek. You name it... And they have been.
Not to talk about the '' smaller'' ones between villages or groups of people like always have been in afrika etc. (And indians etc.)
