The document defines and describes various parts of a castle in English, Spanish and German, including defensive structures like curtain walls, towers, and moats, as well as buildings inside the castle like the chapel and gatehouse. It provides translations and brief explanations for each part, such as that a barbican is a freestanding defense with arrow slits used to defend the castle's footbridge, and that the keep is the castle's main tower serving as a final stronghold.
