• The king has not moved from his original
position.
• The rook that you want to move by castling has
not moved from its original position.
• The king is not placed in check on its current
square, the square to which it is going, or a
square it passes over.
• The squares between the king and the rook are
not occupied.
If a rook is on the same side of the board as the
king's square, this is called a king's side castle. If
the rook is on the same side of the board as the
queen's square, this is called a queen's side castle.
In castling, the king moves 2 squares in the
direction of either rook. The rook that is closest to
the king after the king has moved now moves to the
square right next to and on the other side of the
king. Castling counts as 1 move.
