Another castle, outside the city on a hill.
Castle of Frederick II, Frederick II here, hunted with hawks.
To build it, they were used money and guidance, the Knights Templar.
A strange castle, many Templar symbols. Dominated by knowledge, here experiments in alchemy.
In 1224 he founded the University of Naples,
His court was also one of the most important centers of mathematical studies in Europe together with the centers of the universities of Paris and Oxford.
The building complies with the numerical series of Fibonacci, known by Frederick II.
The number 8 is a constant construction.
It is with base 8 sides. has 8 towers with 8 sides. (8x8 = 64 (by subtracting the sides in common) -8 = 56).
The number 56 is carved into the rock.
Frederick II died in 56 years, most recently in Palermo opens his tomb, his finger was found a ring with a flower with 8 petals.
8 flowers to the right of the portal
8 flowers to the left of the portal
8 large rooms on the ground floor,
8 large rooms on the 1st floor
8 large rooms on the 2nd floor.
In a house where nothing is left to chance, surprised me one thing.
The spiral staircases in the towers are arranged in a counterclockwise direction (unlike the castles I've seen.)
Clockwise, the enemies are getting challenged the sword with his left hand, this is a disadvantage. I have no news, other castles, which had scales in favor of the enemies.
A curiosity.
These days, April 8 and October 8 (Midsummer solstice and winter) in a large room with no windows, two rays of the sun, through the slits and light up a rectangle. The engraving on this rectangle, with time, are lost.
The strange thing is that, a sense of fear assails those who are in the room, that grows up to be evil, you must exit. Suggestion? . :\
