The most important room in a castle was the great hall. This room housed most of the main ceremonies and feasting in the town. It was where the people who worked and lived in the castle ate. The room and the seating arrangements were in accordance with the medieval feudal structure: the lord and other important members raised up and at the front of the rooms, and the lower members of the fiefdom spread out farther and farther away from the main table. The lord and his guests sat on a dais at one end, from which he could look down upon his lesser subjects. Also, at the far end of the hall, was an open space for entertainers to perform. These entertainers were often wandering minstrels, poets, or an acrobat that could liven up the sometimes dreary atmosphere of the castle.
The great hall was the largest building of the inner ward. It was often half the length of the wall it was built into. The great hall was often nestled back into a corner of the inner ward. In this way two walls of the great hall could actually be parts of the inner ward wall. This saved time and building space. The great hall was usually the tallest structure in the inner ward, except for the massive towers. Its high, pointed roof was supported by a series of parallel wooden arches. These arches were in turn held up by corbels. These were stone outcroppings built into the wall that the wooden arch could sit on. These sides of the hall usually had many stained glass windows to let in light. Also, along the sides there were three or four fireplaces to heat up the room. Tapestries were also hung on the walls to help keep in warmth. There were also two or three doors in the hall, one usually leading to the kitchen.
