How long did it take to build a castle in the 15th century?
In Britain we have loads of old castles, many from the 15 century onwards, of which many are still in use today (mostly as tourist attractions nowadays though our Queen still lives in some of them), my question is as they had no machinery in the 15 century how long would it take to build a castle (complete with dungeons, walls and towers, moat and all the rest), and how much would it cost in today’s money allowing for inflation.
It all depends on the size and the amount of workers. Usually a mid evil castle took around 10 to 12YEARS to build. It would roughly cost around $50,000,000-$75,000,000 in todays money to build.
