We found this Lego Castle site based in a museum in Indiana. It has a "book" of information interspersed with games that let you gain Lego treasure. It also has a nifty "Design Your Own Coat of Arms" feature. Here is another good simple Coat of Arms template.
And we found an actual Lego castle, built by a home schooling family that got really into it. We found their video tour fascinating!
This a good portal with tons of Middle Ages sites. You just have to click around because some of the links are dead.
Kid's Castle is fun to explore and has a few good games.
On the web, there are games on everything from the Domesday book to jousting.
Here are good explanations of castle defenses, and armor.
You can also play Crush the Castle (2) or Castle Clout, but read the about the castle defenses first.
Then, too, you can watch Great Castles of Europe on You Tube, as well as see sword smithing and armor forging.
