Refuge castle and fortress, not citadel - see definitions

[edit]

3 years later, I've learned how to "move" (rename) articles. Again, it's a fortress, not a citadel; a citadel is a separate castle-like fortification standing next to a walled city and serving as a residence and last refuge for the ruler or governor and his garrison. Not the case here. Romanian vernacular often mixes up "cetate" (fortress) with "citadelă" (citadel), this is probably the root of the confusion. Arminden (talk) 17:03, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
