Carlisle Castle, been there

Crofe Castle, been there as well

Admittedly they are mainly ruins, but thats what happens when you stand up to the Parliamentary armies in the English Civil War (1642-48)

Well, there are a lot of great castles in Germany, but I'll show you just these. Not so spectacular, but I have my reasons:

 

This is a rather small one and it's not in its best shape. But it's in my home town and I can look at it every day and go to it whenever I want.

"Wachtenburg" or "Geiersburg" in Wachenheim an der Weinstrasse, south-west Germany

 

This is a bigger castle, but more ruins than castle. It's one town in the north.

The ruins of the "Hardenburg" in Bad Duerkheim-Hardenburg, south-west Germany

 

This is a really big castle where I once visited a medieval market. Very cool (something for D&D-players).

Grrrr, Chepstow Castles a really good un, sits above a river. But i can't find any decent pictures. The town near it has part of the old city walls still. Like I said, most of them are in ruins thanks to Cromwell's cannon.
