Tower of London, officially named Her Majesty's Royal Palace and Fortress, is a historic castle, that sits on the north bank of the River Thames, in central London, England, dating from the 1080s. The castle lies within the London Boroughs of Tower Hamlets, being separated from the eastern edge of the City of London, by the open space, known as Tower Hill.

The history of the Tower of London started in the early 1080s, as written above, when William the Conqueror began the building of a massive stone tower, like none other seen before, at the center of his London fortress. As the years gone by, in the centuries that followed, successive monarchs added their "vision" to the fortifications, the castle having a rich story to tell visitors today, revealing its role as a fortress, palace and prison, played throughout the ages.

The Tower of London has been the seat of the British government, the living quarters of monarchs, the site of famous political intrigue, the repository of the Crown Jewel, and it has housed lions, bears and, up to this day, flightless ravens, not to mention notorious traitors and framed members of the court, lords and ministers, clergymen and knights.
