Harsh Reality of Life in a Medieval Castle

Venture beyond the fairy tales and uncover the shocking, complex, and fascinating reality of life in a medieval castle. This documentary explores the intricate social hierarchy within the towering stone walls, from the nomadic nobility like Countess Joan de Valence who managed their castles like corporate executives, to the professional soldiers who endured brutal sieges. Discover the surprising world of the castle's residents, including the specialized servants, the court jesters who used humor as a political tool, the kitchen staff who prepared elaborate feasts of swan and 24,000 herrings, and the essential but socially isolated "gong-farmer" who managed the surprisingly sophisticated sanitation systems. We'll delve into the real professions, daily routines, and hidden truths of the people who lived, worked, and died in these self-contained cities, shattering your assumptions about life in the Middle Ages. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎶 Music used in the video: 'The Descent' by Kevin MacLeod (www.incompetech.com) 'Angevin - Thatched Villagers' by Kevin MacLeod 'A Dragon's Lullaby' by Scott Buckley (www.scottbuckley.com.au) 'Decline' by Kevin MacLeod 'Reawakening' by Kevin MacLeod 'Folk Round' by Kevin MacLeod 'Magic Escape Room' by Kevin MacLeod 'Dreams Become Real' by Kevin MacLeod Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b... ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎓 Recommended Reading: ‘Life in a Medieval Castle’ by Joseph and Frances Gies ‘The Time Traveller's Guide to Medieval England’ by Ian Mortimer ‘Castle’ by David Macaulay ‘The English Castle’ by John Goodall ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⌛ Chapters: 0:00 Introduction 1:44 Lords and Ladies 3:21 The Military Elite 5:21 The Servants 7:22 Culinary Masters 12:02 The Gong Farmer 14:32 Conclusion ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ DISCLAIMER: All materials in these videos are used for entertainment purposes and fall within the guidelines of fair use.
