Why draw Castles?

Are your students studying medieval times? If so, one way to help them remember all this new info is to have them learn how to draw a castle. There are many different ways to draw one, of course, but this tutorial has enough cool details to make it fun and interesting, but not so many that it becomes difficult.

Rather than just draw a square with the familiar cut out shapes at the top, this castle tutorial shows students how to draw the turrets on the sides, the rounded wood door, and tower with a flag. Add a mountain background, and you have the setting for an historical and/or fairytale kind of drawing!

Castles from Europe originated in the 9th and 10th centuries. More advanced castles that featured towers other defensive structures, like the one in this tutorial came around in the 12th and 13th centuries. These changes made castles stronger and tougher which is why some still stand today, over 500 years later.
