THE CASTLE PROBLY HAD A TYPE OF SISTREN TO CATCH THE WATER FROME RAIN AND STORE IT.

ALSO MANY CASTLES COLLECTED DEW WATER ON THE STONES AND IT WAS PROBLY ALSO COLLECTED IN THE FEILS ON LENEN CLOTHES THAT WOULD SOAK UP THE DEW WATER OVER NIGHT THAN ONLY TO BE RINGED OUT INTO A CONTAINER. DU !

[quote="Agape"]i was wondering abt how ppl provided clean water in a castle? i mean i know they digged out holes to make wells but how abt the ones that were built on rocky mountains? like neuschwanstein in Bavaria?

[size=12]could anyone share opinions on this?[/quote]

As I understand it, neuschwanstein is supplied by a spring. Also, it is a presurrised watering system, which was almost a revolutionary concept at the time...although I don't know why, considering the aqueduct system of Roman times. Mr. Green
