Home›Buildings and Structures›Building Type›CastleBrowse ByCastleBuilding type sorts buildings by the specific kind of structure each one is, such as a church, a tower or a house. The Sagrada Familia is described by Wikipedia as "a Catholic church in the Eixample district of Barcelona," a precise type distinct from a palace or a museum. This dimension lets a visitor find every building of one exact kind.FactsCastleConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonEarliest Attested EraWell-attested9500 BCE 1CastleFilter Results67 entriesBuilding FamilyAllCastles (50)Citadels and City Walls (1)Colonial and Post-Medieval Ruin Sites (Misfiled) (1)Fortified Prisons (2)Forts and Coastal Defenses (1)Historic Homes and Estates (Misfiled) (1)Historic Houses (Individual Landmarks) (1)Historic Houses of the Southern United States (1)Manor and Country Houses (1)Museums and Galleries (2)Museums of Europe (2)Palaces of Central Italy (1)Palaces of Eastern Europe and Russia (1)Palaces of Italy (4)Palaces of Northern Italy (3)Palaces of the United Kingdom and Ireland (1)Palaces of Western Europe (1)StyleAllBaroque Architecture (1)Brick Gothic Architecture (1)Chateauesque Architecture (1)Flamboyant Gothic Architecture (1)Georgian Architecture (1)Gothic Architecture (5)Gothic Revival (1)Herrerian Architecture (1)Japanese Traditional Architecture (3)Mannerism (1)Moorish Revival Architecture (1)Mudejar Architecture (1)Norman Architecture (4)Renaissance Architecture (10)Romanesque Architecture (5)Shoin-zukuri (1)Tudor Architecture (2)Victorian Architecture (1)MaterialAllBrick (5)Granite (1)Limestone (4)Masonry (2)Sandstone (2)Slate (1)Steel (1)Stone (14)Timber (5)Completed YearAll1038 (1)1068 (1)1078 (1)1087 (1)1096 (1)1119 (1)1132 (1)1142 (1)1160 (1)1169 (1)1170 (1)1173 (1)1179 (1)1200 (1)1207 (1)1250 (1)1260 (1)1264 (1)1290 (1)1300 (1)1331 (1)1350 (1)1377 (1)1390 (1)1409 (1)1420 (2)1441 (1)1448 (1)1470 (1)1490 (1)1543 (1)1585 (1)1594 (1)1601 (1)1612 (1)1650 (1)1822 (1)1875 (1)1884 (1)1886 (1)1931 (1)1971 (1)1983 (1)Standing StatusAllRuined (3)Standing (64)GroupAllCastles (50)Citadels and City Walls (1)Colonial and Post-Medieval Ruin Sites (Misfiled) (1)Fortified Prisons (2)Forts and Coastal Defenses (1)Historic Homes and Estates (Misfiled) (1)Historic Houses of the Southern United States (1)Manor and Country Houses (1)Museums of Europe (2)Palaces of Central Italy (1)Palaces of Eastern Europe and Russia (1)Palaces of Northern Italy (3)Palaces of the United Kingdom and Ireland (1)Palaces of Western Europe (1)PlaceAllCzechia (1)Denmark (1)France (1)Germany (1)Ireland (1)Italy (33)Jamaica (1)Japan (5)Jordan (1)Lithuania (1)Norway (1)Romania (1)Slovakia (1)Spain (1)Switzerland (4)Syria (1)United Kingdom (11)United States (3)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 67Akershus FortressCastleAlcazar of SegoviaCastleAlnwick CastleCastleAragonese CastleCastleArco CastleCastleArechi CastleCastleBishop's Palace, LlandaffCastleBorgo MedioevaleCastleBran CastleCastleCastello BufaliniCastleCastello della MantaCastleCastello di CaccamoCastleCastello di RoccascalegnaCastleCastello EstenseCastleCastello ManiaceCastleCastello Normanno (Aci Castello)CastleCastello Normanno-Svevo (Bari)CastleCastello Orsini-OdescalchiCastleCastle of AcquafreddaCastleCastle of AvioCastleChampvent CastleCastleChateau de ChinonCastleChillon CastleCastleCinderella CastleCastleCly CastleCastleCopertino CastleCastleDover CastleCastleEdinburgh CastleCastleEuryalus fortressCastleFairview (Delaware City, Delaware)CastleFénis CastleCastleForte di San LeoCastleHagenwil CastleCastleHaus CarstanjenCastleIntrod CastleCastleKerak CastleCastleKilkenny CastleCastleKingsgate CastleCastleKrak des ChevaliersCastleKronborg CastleCastleLeeds CastleCastleLeigh-Pemberton HouseCastleMatsumoto CastleCastleNagoya CastleCastleNijo CastleCastleOsaka CastleCastlePrague CastleCastlePrösels CastleCastleRocca Borromeo di AngeraCastleRocca MaggioreCastleRocca Meli LupiCastleRocchetta MatteiCastleRochester CastleCastleSanta Barbara Fortress, PistoiaCastleSarriod de la Tour CastleCastleSearles Castle (Massachusetts)CastleSerralunga d'Alba CastleCastleSpis CastleCastleStirling CastleCastleTorrechiara CastleCastleTower of LondonCastleTrakai Island CastleCastleVerrès CastleCastleVisconti Castle (Somma Lombardo)CastleVisconti-Sforza Castle (Vigevano)CastleWarwick CastleCastleZug CastleCastleConnectionsShowing the first 400 of 2,745 connections.Sources1.
