castle
The castle, or fort, has often been granted to one who has faithfully held a castle for his sovereign, or who has captured one by force or stratagem. The castle signifies spiritual power and vigilance on the watch as well as home and safety. The tower is very similar to this and is an emblem of grandeur and society. It is a symbol of defense and of a steadfast individual. The visual difference between a tower and a castle is that a tower is a single column topped by a turret, and a castle usually has two towers joined by a wall with a door in it. This was a distinction that was rarely observed in ancient days, but now it is faithfully adhered to. When smaller towers surmount either a castle or a tower it is called ‘triple-towered.’Copyright © 2000 - 2009 Swyrich Corporation, all rights reserved
