Indeed, the value of this key can be anything, as long as it is
present it will be (atleast) equal to building = yes<br>
<br>
But castles could use some more verbose tagging: for example, by
your description, this is a castle, water around it and additional
buildings:<br>

If Marc has passed with his knowledge, you'll also notice that
'heritage' tags will be added, (Escada) Marc Gemis knows more about
how to go about this correctly.<br>
<br>
Adding Historic=yes is not a bad idea either. (map renderers will
take this into account).<br>
<br>
Good luck on completing this.<br>

It's just what Mapnik decides to show on its map, there are
other renderings,<br>
like <a href="http://opentopomap.org/#map=15/51.00633/5.31934" target="_blank">http://opentopomap.org/#map=15/51.00633/5.31934</a>
that have special symbols<br>
for castles.<br>
<br>
The most detailed way of mapping a castle would be outlining
the building<br>
contours, and then add the historic=castle tag on that
building. It'll then<br>
show up on Mapnik since it has building=yes, but still no
special castle<br>
symbol.<br>
