Our dream is to have „Castles.today” as the most popular service presenting information about Castles all over the world.

Objective of the project is history and tourism promotion through presenting high quality materials related to castles, to make everyone who will be reading and watching photos, virtual presentations and films, break away from everyday life and transfer to the times of princesses and knights walking around their chambers and on the walls of majestic castles

Castles.today serves shall be your carry-on compendium of sound knowledge about castles. You will find here loads of monumental buildings from all the corners of the world and from every historical era – ancient forts, medieval castles, baroque palaces, Slavic gords, Mauretanian fortresses, exotic strongholds from the Far East or the New World. We presents not only castles but other building of defensive nature like churches, synagogues or monasteries. Every single piece of architecture is described in a clear, easy and attractive way – full of historical trivia, interesting facts about their construction, functions and historical events that these buildings were a part of, including interesting castle legends
