莊園大屋

莊園嘅住宅係一種帶有歷史意義嘅家宅院加有莊園式嘅中心住宅。呢種最基礎嘅地域組合式結構嘅建築就喺歐洲嘅封建時期已經有喇，而呢啲屋成日都係畀莊園之王嚟住嘅。佢係由一個莊園同埋佢嘅大堂，組成嚟管理皇帝嘅莊園法庭同埋莊園嘅人客、宴會嘅公共大餐。雖然話呢種咁嘅屋喺依家嚟講，係冇咩人嚟接受喇，因為呢啲屋企喺中世纪末嗰陣，就係有錢佬住嘅屋。呢啲屋雖然話係加強咗個結構，但呢啲屋係成日特登用嚟畀人睇多過畀人攞嚟做防空洞嘅。而莊園嘅住宅，主要係出現響歐洲嘅封建主義國家入面，有時都被人話成呢啲屋唔係城堡就係宮殿，重有好多隻嗌法都有……

建築學嘅角度

雖然話呢啲屋都唔係城堡嘅典型要塞，但係好多間嘅莊園住宅都係加固咗嘅。佢哋成日都係用墻或者係溝渠嚟圍住成個農民嘅建築。佢重安排咗啲差佬嚟24個鐘睇實附近有冇賊佬或者係歹徒嚟喺呢間屋附近搞搞震。喺好耐之前，嗰啲差佬成日就把守響有活動橋嘅護城河附近，而且佢哋都喺警衛室同埋監視塔入面嘅，但係佢哋對於有防守嘅城堡嚟講，再大嘅塔或者係再猛嘅墻壁設計，凈係可以擋得住個圍攻咋。不過呢啲屋最基本嘅設計係從一個大堂到附近嘅細房仔入面，唔單止多咗啲和平生活，重減少咗出面嘅封建戰爭。

喺16世紀初嗰陣，莊園嘅住宅同埋細嘅城堡仔都係成日畀鄉下嘅仁兄同埋好多防禦嘅設備攞到舒適同埋嘅有特征性嘅意義。
