Once in every game, each king is allowed to make a special move, known as castling. Castling consists of moving the king two squares along the first rank toward a rook (which is on the player's first rank[note 1]) and then placing the rook on the last square the king has just crossed. Castling is permissible only if all the following conditions hold:[2]
-Neither of the pieces involved in castling may have been previously moved during the game.
-There must be no pieces between the king and the rook.
-The king may not be in check, nor may the king pass through squares that are under attack by enemy pieces, nor move to a square where it is in check.
