The castle farmyard
|
The fortified castle's bailey was a central part of daily life, where domestic, agricultural and craft activities were combined, while also playing a crucial role in the overall security and functionality of the fortress.
It often housed servants and farm workers. It could include buildings such as infirmaries, kitchens and storage rooms.
It was also the place where domestic animals such as chickens, pigs and goats were kept. Stables and pens were essential for subsistence.
Vegetable gardens were often present to provide fresh fruit and vegetables.
Workshops could be set up for craftsmen, such as blacksmiths or manurers.
It served as a gathering place for social activities, local markets and sometimes even festivals.
You'll discover craftsmen's stalls, the law courts and farm animals (chickens, ducks, goats, sheep, etc.) To delight your children, you can enter the enclosure of the dwarf goats and sheep to share their games while respecting their peace and quiet ! |
