Tower of London

Discover 1,000 Years of History

Home to kings, queens, prisoners and the Crown Jewels, the Tower of London is one of the world's most famous historic landmarks and a must-see destination on any visit to London.

Standing proudly beside the River Thames, the Tower of London has played a central role in British history since it was founded by William the Conqueror in the 11th century. Over the centuries it has served as a royal palace, fortress, prison, armoury and treasury.

Today visitors can explore the medieval towers, walk the ancient walls and discover the stories of the monarchs, soldiers and prisoners who shaped the nation's history. Highlights include the spectacular Crown Jewels, the famous Yeoman Warder tours and the legendary ravens that call the Tower home.

Recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Tower of London remains one of Britain's most visited attractions and offers an unforgettable journey through nearly a millennium of history.
