Castle or fortress β what's the difference?
Long ago, a fortress was built mainly for protection, often high on a hill so guards could spot enemies from far away. The notches along the top of the wall are called battlements β guards could hide behind them. A palace, on the other hand, was a grand home for kings and queens. In fairy tales the two often blend together, and our castle has a bit of both. In Scotland, New Year's Eve is called Hogmanay and is a big celebration.
