A castle is a defensive structure seen as one of the main symbols of the Middle Ages. Castles were constructed of wood, stone and also brick. Castles could take many years to complete, although the time needed depended greatly from type, location, resources, time period, construction materials, etc. The defensive structures of a castle include the keep, the enceinte, the gate house, wooden hoardings, and the crenellations and merlons, cover for archers
