A castle in the strict historical sense is a fortified private residence built to function as both home and military stronghold, a form that peaked in Europe between the eleventh and fifteenth centuries and that persists today in thousands of surviving structures from Scotland to the Rhine Valley to the hill forts of Japan. The Castles of the World 2027 Wall Calendar from The Gifted Stationery Co. photographs twelve of those structures, from Neuschwanstein rising out of Bavarian cloud to Himeji's white curtain walls against a blue sky. Expect wide landscape framing that places the structure in the defensive topography it was built into, which is usually most of what makes a castle worth photographing.
