Why Medieval Castles Were Colder Than Peasant Homes in Winters? | Relaxing History for Sleep

Why were medieval castles often colder in winter than simple peasant homes? In this video, we uncover the surprising reasons massive stone castles were harder to heat than small medieval houses during brutal winter months. Learn how thick stone walls absorbed cold, high ceilings trapped icy air, and inefficient fireplaces struggled to warm vast spaces. Compare castle living conditions with peasant homes that used smaller rooms, thatched roofs, animals for warmth, and tightly sealed structures to stay relatively warmer. #MedievalCastles #MiddleAges #HistoryFacts #MedievalLife
