White Tower of William the Conqueror

The White Tower of William the Conqueror, completed around 1100, marks the beginning of the story of the Tower of London as a palace and fortress. Access was high with a wooden staircase if there was an attack it could be removed so that the tower became inaccessible. It's known as the white tower as every year they painted it white. This tower was built taking advantage of the ruins of a Roman wall. It has some huge rooms, some form the Armory museum and there are large living rooms with fireplaces, a small church, etc. At the exit there's a souvenir shop
