Castle is walled and fortifield and a palace not necessarily. A castle usually held a community and palace not necessarily
A palace was usually a residence of an exalted person (king, queen, bishop, ruler) a castle not necessarily.

I think a castle is more of a fortress, for protecting a town. A palace is a big fancy house, as someone else so succinctly put it. It's more decorative than protective.

I *think* a castle is a building that can function as a fortress, (hypothetically anyway, a fortress is unlikely ever to be actually needed anymore.)
And a palace is just a huge, fancy house.
If anyone knows better though, feel free to correct me.

A palace is/was usually very ornate and is used as a residence, mainly for intertaining.
A castle is/was used as a stronghold for defense, as well as a residence.

A castle is more in the medivial times. A palace is more like in the dessert.
