Facts and practical information
A dame or demoiselle, in terms of fortifications, is a massive obstacle of cylindrical or truncated cone shape which, placed as a crown on an enclosure, forbids any assailant to walk along it.
The word lady used in this context probably derives from the Frankish or German word Damm which means a dam. The term demoiselle is an extension of this word.
