There's a news report on actually building a Castle in France.   I've 
found there web site on the castle, and am just amazed that I hadn't 
heard about it.
Here's a clip of the first few paragraphs, and the links to the article 
and the Castle's web site.

          French Craftsmen Build Medieval Castle                By

Stone by stone, craftsmen build a medieval-style castle with only horses 
to cart the rock, without power tools. It's a living history lesson and 
a successful tourism project.

 Once upon a time, deep in the forests of Burgundy 
<http://travel.msn.com/Destinations_Burgundy_France_guidessubindex_DATE_DESC_84_10038701_4.aspx>, 
a man was haunted by a vision. He dreamed of building a castle, with 
turrets, great walls and a moat. Some people wondered if he was mad.

This was, after all, 1996.
