Well, that raises different questions, as well. Such as:


 * Is that Harkon's only castle?


 * Was that ever one of Harkon's castles in the first place, or did they forcibly move in?


 * Did Harkon and his family even originate from Skyrim in the first place, or have they moved around quite a bit before finally settling in Skyrim during the events of meeting him as the DragonBorn?


 * Was the castle built by Nords? And if so, who says that they can't adopt a new style of architecture seen elsewhere in the world? It's called innovation, and it happens constantly. Just because Nords have been building a certain way doesn't mean that all of them build the same way, or that they might not make adaptations throughout time.
