The Tower of London has been an essential part of British royal history for almost 1,000 years and is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. At the Tower, you can admire the breathtaking Crown Jewels, stand on the execution site of three British queens and listen to mesmerising myths and legends that have surrounded the Tower for centuries.

You’ll see the infamous Bloody Tower, where Princes Edward V and Richard Duke of York are rumoured to have been murdered; Beauchamp Tower, where you can read the original carved inscriptions of past prisoners; and Traitors’ Gate, where those unfortunate enough not to survive imprisonment were beheaded.
