well medieval people loved churches. Look at Cambridge. There are dozens of them. So cant go wrong with multiple ones. And traditionally the royalty would have their own services exclusively from commoners but of course your world does not have to adhere to those rules. And if you already have a cathedral then it makes sense not to repeat the build. House of Lords would be cool but to me that does not really seem like a castle though definitely an administrative building. So maybe I misunderstood what you wanted. I say try it out in creative mode first and use real world pics to help you perhaps. Good luck!
My world isn’t really a theme or anything. A chinese style pagoda is overlooking the place from a distance. I built it because I thought it would be a fun challenge. However for castles, I do default to norman style.
The castle will both be administrative and secure, but mainly administrative. I’m not really basing the society on medieval times. There are some ideas I have heard like how the old lord of where I grew up had his mansion at the town square because he wanted people to be able to walk up and knock his door, etc. Or how not attending the Church with commoners just seems wrong and unchristian. Although chapels are cool, a personal private prayer chapel will likely be a feature.

Yep, I’m using creative!
