At best some castles were prisons or to guard valuable possessions
I am currently picking on Lincoln as I have researched the cathedral and castle there before
Not a single block at Lincoln castle is original
They built most of it in modern times.
The walls were built to house the victorian prison inside, before that there was likely an older prison.
The idea there was a battle between a hundred or so people in armour is so retarded.

If you think about it, where would the rich keep their possessions before we had banks etc?
In "castles" guarded by men in armour.

Birds eye view of some prisons are interesting. They look similar to star forts.
