Medieval English castle tour – The Tower of London

September 9th, 2011

Ensure you afford some time in ascertaining what life was like imprisoned in the Bloody or Beauchamp Towers when you visit inside the Tower of London. Even marvel at some of the messages prisoners left behind in the walls.

The Medieval Palace comprises of lavish interiors. Delve into the intricacies of what life was like in a startlingly opulent medieval household on your Tower of London tour.

The White Tower was the original Tower of London. Begun by William the Conqueror around 1080, it would have made a protective, formidable home for the newly crowned Norman invader.
