Carcassonne the Walled City

Have you ever seen the 1991 movie "Robin Hood", staring Kevin Costner?
Have you ever seen the Hyundai commercial showing the car being followed by townsfolk out of a castle?
This is the town where parts of the movie & the commercial, were filmed.

Now we will take the tour of the walls.

Wooden structures along walls & on towers have slotted floors, to shoot arrows straight down at attackers trying to dig at bottoms of walls.

As I was taking this shot of the mote, I heard voices below me.

They wanted their photo taken.
