Under Aymon's lordship the castle got its pentagonal layout, the external boundary wall and many of the towers.

Under Boniface I the castle reached its greatest splendor: it was a rich court surrounded by a vegetable plot, a vineyard and a garden where the lord and his guests could relax. | In 1895 architect Alfredo d'Andrade purchased it and started a restoration campaign to secure the damaged structures. In 1935 a second campaign by De Vecchi and Mesturino completed the restoration and gave the castle the current appearance. The rooms were also provided with wood period furniture. | 1 |

Such shrines existed during the Three Kingdoms of Korea period (57-668), but these have not survived. The Jongmyo Shrine was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list in 1995. | When it was built in 1394 by order of King Taejo, the Jongmyo Shrine was thought to be one of the longest buildings in Asia, if not the longest. The main hall, known as "Jeongjeon" (Hangul: 정전; Hanja: 正殿), had seven rooms. Each room, known as ""myo-shil"" (Hangul: 묘실; Hanja: 廟室, lit. "Temple Room", i.e.: Royal Shrine) was reserved for a king and his queen. The complex was expanded by King Sejong (r. 1418–50) who ordered the construction of "Yeongnyeongjeon" (Hangul: 영년전; Hanja: 永寧殿, "Hall of Eternal Comfort"). This practice of expansion continued, with the growth of the complex moving from west to east, because of the need to house more memorial tablets during the reigns of later kings until there were a total of 19 rooms. However, during the Seven-Year War (1592–98), Japanese invaders burned down the original shrine and a new complex was constructed in 1601 and has survived to this day. The original tablets were saved in the invasion by hiding them in the house of a commoner and also survive. A king's tablets were enshrined three years after his death. There are 19 memorial tablets of kings and 30 of their queens, placed in the 19 chambers. Each room is very simple and plain in design. Only two kings' memorial tablets are not enshrined here. In addition to the tablet, there is a panel listing each king's accomplishments. | 0 |

Popular Democratic Movement:1826870 | The DTA won the 1978 South West African legislative election by a landslide, claiming 41 of the 50 seats.
