Feli forgot to mention an important fact. All knights had the right to get their own castle. Not only lords, earl's or duke's. And that's the reason why we have so many castles.. Furthermore is a city never named "Burg" like "Würzburg" The City got the name of the castle. The castle and the owner had the duty to protect their citizens (Bürger) behind the walls of the castle in the case of a siege.
The German word Burg meant originally a fortified village or town, later also a fortified manor. (There is also the "Fliehburg", a fortified keep near a village which is only occupied during war times.) The English "castle" goes back to Latin Castrum, a military fortress, or Castellum, a small Castrum. The German word Schloss meant originally a key fortress or the fortification of a strategically pivotal position, e.g. the access to a pass road or where an important road crossed a river. Since those castles were mostly also used as seat of a powerful ruler and therefore extended with representative buildings, the word was then conveyed to the representative seats of princes, duikes and kings. The English word palace refers to the Palatine Hill in Rome, where once the Roman emperors built their seats. This is also the origin of the German word Pfalz (English: palatinate), which designated the seasonal seat of the king or emperor in medieval times, as then was no fixed capital, but the government moved around from region to region in the empire. (The historic town of Quedlinburg for example was the Easter "Pfalz" of the Ottonic dynasty, the first Saxon kings in East Francia and the first German kings and emperors of the Holy Roman Empire.) Nowadays "Burg" is mostly used for fortified manors, "Schloss" for representative seats of nobles, which were mostly once either fortified castles or in some cases abbeys, "Palast" for more extended representative buildings, mostly in the baroque style, and "Festung" for extended fortresses, mostly constructed between the beginning of the 17th and the end of the 19th century. The estimations of 20,000+ castles in Germany includes most of those types of buildings as well as ruins of former castles and maybe also some representative manors built in the historicist/romantic style of the 19th century.
8:14 Normally, the town (with -burg) is named after the castle (except Augsburg).The sources are sometimes a bit difficult and a matter of interpretation. Here very simplified and shortened: Augsburg: Originally an army camp, then a Roman settlement (Augusta Vindelicorum). When translating into German, -burg was chosen. At that time the town was also fortified. So - for me - the name makes sense Würzburg: A Fliehburg was found during excavations on the Marienberg (Marien mounten). Fliehburg (flee/escape castle) is a fortification where residents go during war Freiburg: Around 1091, Berthold II of Zähringen had a castle built with a castle settlement of the same name. There were already settlements nearby but with different names Brandenburg: named because there was a fortified settlement (or in other word a "Burg"). Slavic Settlement from ~600, fortification from ~700. Duisburg: Archaeological excavations show that there was already a Roman bridgehead. Early sources (5th century) are difficult, also due to possible confusion with another town in Belgium with the same name. Duisburg "Königspfalz" was the eponymous castle complex of the city of Duisburg. It was created in the 10th century.
Actually there might be some more castles, that are yet to be discovered. The first ones were built by the saxons and were made from wood. Those structures didn't survive as they were and therefore people forgot about them. But with drones becoming a thing, some of the were rediscovered in form of a big ring in the landscape. Those turned out to be wooden walls of castles or fortresses. Here where I live, there's one castle within 20 minutes drive. Within 1 hour of driving there are three more of them.
And how do we call a palace inside of a fortress? Or a castle surrounded by a fortess? Or how do we call a fortress surrounded by city walls? And a castle inside of a fortress? 🤷♂
A very good question. Because the part of a castle who the knight, his wife and family is living was called "Der Palas" That means the "Palace". Even in a castle build in the 11th century. 😮
A palace is a palace. That is a reperentive residential building of royals or nobles without defence structures. What you mean is a palas. This is the residential building of a knight or lord. As soon as it has some defence structures it is a castle. A fortress within city walls is a citadel.
the german word for citizen is Bürger ( thats why i call a BigMac a Hamburger ! ) the german word for Castle is Burg, so only someone who is protected by a castle is a citizen.
@11:48 wow thinking about Germany as Holy Roman Empire is wild, Significant Kingdom of Bohemia, Margrave of Moravia and Silesia (Czech Kingdom) was under Luxemburg family through marriage merge with Bohemian Premislid dynasty of Czech royal family (Charles IV was son of the marriage and even the titles of Emperor of Holy Roman Empire and King of Bohemia were still separate titles) Bohemia and Moravia were NEVER GERMANY
I do live near to a Veste in Germany, which is technically a Burg, but as it was the residence of a bishop in the year 1219 (!) and became a prison in 1802 when Napoleon took over - don't know! - ... so a lot of history at this building as knights took over it in 1499 ... the Veste has a big (and original) knight logo sign with the date beneath it, which is hard to read at the it looks like 1999 with the second 9 twisted/mirrowed or whatever - but it says 1499. Anyway ... ^^+gg XD I can see this huge place from my window as it is built upon a hill, of course! :)

Walmart failed in the Germany,they had to go...no success.They could not deal with the social regulations and rights for their employees in Germany.
Yes Germany is impressive 🇩🇪❤️🔥👍🏻👏🏻
Yes, that's true: Germany has more castles than McDonalds.
Walmart failed in Germany, and they completely left. Instead Germany sent over Aldi and Lidl to the US and had huge success.

I'm German, born in a region called "Eifel", and yes, in my homeregion you'll stumble over a castle or burg everywhere 😅❤
Neuschwanstein ist indeed not a castle. It is a palace that mock a castle.
Well, castles are literally everywhere in Germany but as Feli stated a lot of them are ruins out in the woods. But those are everywhere!
You had 70 years for building McDo's, we had 1500 years to build castles ^^
That's because the center of the US is pretty empty.
I read half of all the castles were later demolished and used as building material.

How many Walmart are there in gemany lol lol rofl lol
Wales holds the distinction of having more castles per square mile than any other country in Europe.

I always wonder what I like more about you - your voice or your eyes 🤗 Greetings from Berlin, Germany
6:18 Did you not know who Dr. King was named after?
6:24 why did you stop? I genuinely dont get why
#me too
Perhaps because of the name "Wart"burg
Because of Martin Luther.
He only knows Dr. Martin Luther King.
@tatamay126 That could be.
@@tatamay126 That was my first thought but I was like, nah no way

Not only that …. but Germany is just about the size of New-Mexiko
the german word for citizen is Bürger ( thats why i call a BigMac a Hamburger ! )
the german word for Castle is Burg, so only someone who is protected by a castle is a citizen.
My one visits Bentheim Castle in southwest Lower Saxony in northwest Germany on the border with the Netherlands.

Im my city there are two castles (both are Schlösser) and around my city are several other castles.
