XI century Romanesque castle

The tower, outside pentagonal, square becomes inside. The thickness of the walls is about 2 meters and the length of the outer sides is about 9 meters, except those that form the angle of just over 4 feet. The tower was divided into six floors. raised on a solid base, the first two dedicated to storage, the lower-blind and bright with the slits higher.
