I'm going to be dming a Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition Ravenloft campaign here shortly. I was curious as to exactly how big the squares on the castle ravenloft map are supposed to be. I would assume they're five feet squared but it almost seems like the castle would be bigger than that. It almost feels like each square would a 10 foot by 10 foot. I was looking on the map and in the book, but I still can't find anything that tells me exactly what it is.

The 5e adventure uses the old maps for the original adventure back in the 1980's.
At that time, the squares of maps were 10 foot:
