Fifer A fifer is a non - combatant military occupation of a foot soldier who originally played the fife during combat .

Hill castle A hill castle is a castle built on a natural feature that stands above the surrounding terrain . It is a term derived from the German " Höhenburg " used in categorising castle sites by their topographical location . Hill castles are thus distinguished from lowland castles ( " Niederungsburgen " ) . Hill castles may be further subdivided depending on their situation into the following : When in the 10th and 11th centuries castles lost their pure fortress character and were increasingly built as residence castles for the nobility , the hill castle was the preferred choice owing to its better defensive capability . In Germany , almost 66 per cent of all medieval castles ( " Burgen " ) known today are of the hill castle type . To begin with authority for the construction of a hill castle was reserved for the dynastic aristocracy . From the 12th century , however , the higher imperial ministeriales also built representative hill castles . This pattern was followed in the 13th century by the lesser nobility . Today hill castles primarily serve as tourist attractions , mainly because they often have good views − albeit in some cases for the cost of an entrance fee . They also often have restaurants or kiosks . In some cases , where they are preserved , the interior of the castle may be visited . Examples of hill castles are Kriebstein Castle ( spur castle ) , the Marksburg ( hilltop castle ) , Ehrenfels Castle ( hillside castle ) and Schachenstein Castle ( rock castle ) .
