The real place
William the Conqueror began the White Tower around 1078, and the castle grew around it over the following centuries as a royal palace, prison and armoury. It still houses the Crown Jewels and is guarded by the Yeoman Warders, and it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Visiting
Go straight to the Crown Jewels at opening time, before the queues build. Then join one of the free tours led by a Yeoman Warder, which start near the entrance and are included in the ticket.
