Why You SHOULD Visit The Tower Of London

Explore London’s iconic castle and World Heritage Site The Tower of London without the usual crowds. The Crown Jewels, Meet the legendary Yeoman Warders, Ravens and see the Tower like never before with this virtual walk through, See what it was like to be a prisoner inside the tower of London and so much more! The Tower of London is an internationally famous monument and one of England’s most iconic structures. William the Conqueror built the White Tower in 1066 as a demonstration of Norman power, siting it strategically on the River Thames to act as both fortress and gateway to the capital. It is the most complete example of an 11th century fortress palace remaining in Europe. A rare survival of a continuously developing ensemble of royal buildings, from the 11th to 16th centuries, the Tower of London has become one of the symbols of royalty. It also fostered the development of several of England’s major State institutions, incorporating such fundamental roles as the nation’s defence, its record-keeping and its coinage. It has been the setting for key historical events in European history, including the execution of three English queens.

@21:09: He is walking through the oldest Norman Chapel literally unchanged since its construction 1100 years ago. . Actual midevil knights would gather in that very chapel before every coronation. The knights would have a bath, celebrate Mass and pledge their loyalty to the new king. Amazing to think of the titans of the Middle ages who've stood in that chapel: Edward the Confessor, Henry I, Edward I, William Marshall, Henry V, Richard the Lionheart. Hard to wrap the mind around the historical significance of that tiny little chapel.

[@Loobylooto2]

My uncle was a beefeater - when our cousin got married she held her wedding in the tower It was a wonderful experience as we had access to escorted vip tours given by other beefeaters .. We all wore our finest and people thought we were part of the monarchy 😅... best was when the photographs were developed there was an Asian man in every picture that nobody knew 😂😂😂😂

[@richthompson1234]

As a former military man I was privileged, around 15 years ago, to go on an organised after hours tour of the Tower of London. The Yeoman Warders were wearing mufti, and we were treated to a 'behind the scenes tour. We watched the oldest military ceremony in the world, "The Ceremony of the Queen's Keys". Awesome in its simplicity and history. We went to the Yeoman Warders bar a round of eight drinks cost as many £'s, happy days. Your tour brought back some good memories, thanks 👍

[@WalkWithMeTim]

[@dragonhunter08khmn81]

The Ravens of the Tower of London are a groupof at least six captive ravens resident at the Tower of London Their presence is traditionally believed to protect The Crown and the Tower; a superstition holds that "if the Tower of London ravens are lost or fly away, the Crown will fall and Britain with it.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

oh yes I now remember hearing about that

[@rempanda]

I really hate that this tradition holds up. They've allowed the ravens slightly more freedom around the tower but still persist in wing trimming in order to keep them at the tower. Trimming itself isn't harmful but can lead to some very nasty injuries from falls and many birds have exhibited signs of distress after wing trimming. I like mythology and superstition, I don't believe in any of it but it holds a place in history and the context of many customs so I think it's important to keep telling those stories but we shouldn't be keeping this practice alive at the cost of living animals.

[@Ionabrodie69]

@@rempanda They aren’t CAPTIVE.. they can fly and do get out of the tower enclosure on many occasions…. 🙄🇬🇧

[@gailhickman9035]

Hello Tim, those frilly round the neck things were worn by men too. They're called ruffs, and as well as being a fashion statement (back in the day, lol), they also doubled up as 'bibs' if you like. They were detachable and changed if they got dirty, save washing the whole costume. 💕

[@davidnm21]
