Answer:

A. had thick walls, few windows; often resembled a castle

C. was a school, art gallery, and work project.

D. had a huge columns and round, Roman arches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Romanesque church was designed using common architectural blueprint that used by people in Medieval Europe. This is why the church often resembled a castle with very thick walls.

The roman arches were created to make the perception that the room inside the church is more spacious. This is ideal for a building that intended for mass gathering of people . Beside a place of worship, this type of church often used for other purposes (especially the older ones). It is common to use Romanesque church as religious school, Gallery for painting and sculptures, and work projects.
