Directions

Tower of London is on Tower Hill in London, beside Tower Bridge and easily reached by Underground or bus.

The Tower of London is one of London’s most important historic landmarks, founded in the 11th century as a medieval castle and royal fortress. Over the centuries, it served many roles, including palace, prison, armoury, and treasury, and became closely linked with some of the most dramatic episodes in English history. Today it is best known as the home of the Crown Jewels and for its iconic Yeoman Warders, often called Beefeaters. Its stone walls, towers, and defensive layout reveal the power of the monarchy in medieval and early modern Britain. The Tower of London remains a powerful symbol of royal authority, conflict, and ceremony, making it one of the city’s most culturally significant attractions.

Before you enter

  • Check opening hours before visiting, as Monday and Sunday start later than other days.
  • Wear comfortable shoes for uneven surfaces, stone paths, and stairs inside the fortress.
  • Start early if you want more time for the Crown Jewels and main towers.
  • Allow around three hours to see the major highlights at a comfortable pace.

What to expect

  • Expect medieval walls, historic towers, armour displays, and royal history across the site.
  • The Crown Jewels are a major highlight and often draw the longest lines.
  • You will encounter a large, busy heritage site rather than a single tower.
  • Much of the experience is outdoors, so London weather can affect your visit.

During your visit

  • Head to the Crown Jewels earlier in your visit to avoid longer waits later.
  • Take your time reading displays; the site’s stories are a major part of the experience.
  • Watch your step on staircases and worn stone surfaces throughout the complex.
  • Bring water and dress in layers, especially on cooler or windy days.
