WELCOME TO THE TOWER OF LONDON
A Tower has 900 year history. It was a palace, a fortress, a prison and even a zoo. Today the Tower is known as a historical museum and more than 2 million people visit it every year.
About 150 people and 8 ravens live in the Tower.
The Tower of London was built in 1066 by William the Conqueror.
THE WHITE TOWER
The oldest building on the territory of the Tower is the White Tower. It took 20 years to build this Tower. The walls of the White Tower are 27 meters high and 4,6 meters thick. This is the place where the kings of England ate, slept and ran the country.
Later kings made the Tower larger and stronger and built walls, a moat, smaller and more comfortable palaces.
The last palace built in the tower was the Queen’s house. It was built for Anna Boleyn the second wife of Henry VIII. But she lived there only 18 days. She was beheaded not far from the palace – on Tower Green. The first person who lived in the White Tower was not a king, but a prisoner (by the way he escaped).
ZOO
Kings sometimes get strange presents. About 700 years ago king Henry III got 3 leopards, an elephant and a polar bear. He kept them in the Tower. The elephant died after 2 years but the polar bear was happy because he went swimming and fishing in the Thames, of course he had a strong rope on his neck. That was a start for London Zoo. In 1835 all animals left the Tower and were sent to the Zoo in Regent’s Park. Only the ravens stayed in the Tower.
RAVENS
Ravens have always been in the Tower. There is a legend that they bring luck to Britain, if they stay in the Tower. That’s why they get meat and biscuits every day. There is a Ravenmaster, who looks after ravens, feed them, check their health, clips their wings so they can not fly away and even buries them if they die. One raven whose name is Thor has started to speak. He says: “Come on” and “Where is mine?” It is very easy to know the name of the raven for the ravenmaster because they have rings of different color on their legs.

BEEFEATERS
The name Beefeaters came from the French word - buffetier. Buffetiers were guards in the palace of French kings. They protected the king's food. The beefeaters were the people who guarded the Tower and its prisoners. Today they work as guides. They show people around and tell stories about all terrible things that have happened here. No one more knows about the Tower and its history than these famous men. They usually wear dark blue uniforms. But on special occasions they put on red and gold tunics. To become a beefeater today you must serve in the army 22 years.
