Find a Castle
CastleXplorer is a site that shows a map of the United Kingdom with a ton of icons you can click to see existing castles and get short descriptions. Some are not much to look at — just a few ruins — but others are completely restored castles.
The text is for Intermediate English Language Learners, but just looking at the pictures would help anyone get a better sense of the Middle Ages. Using the site would be a great opportunity for students to complete a Venn Diagram comparing and contrasting some of the castles, too.
I’ve placed the link, which I’ve entitled “Find a Castle,” at the bottom of the Middle Ages section of the World History page.
