You can see where Queen Anne Boleyn had her head chopped off by a French swordsman in 1536 as well as the secure Crown Jewels.

It is also home to the 700-year-old tradition - The Ceremony of Keys - which you can be a part of.

The event is the locking-up of the Tower on each and every night without fail, which is carried out by the wardens of the attraction.
