Tower of London

The tower of London is a group of stone buildings in London, among which are a dark prison and former royal residence. It stands in the East End, on the north bank of the Thames.
This old and famous group of buildings id surrounded by a shallow river, and a high stone wall. Inside are the buildings with great thick walls. The walls are so strong that in the old days it could stop a whole army. The British War Department now uses the buildings mainly as a show palace and as a museum. The great collection of armor in the museum was started by Henry VIII in the 1500’s.
The Tower of London holds a leading place in English history. Many famous persons were held in its prison. Lady Jane Grey was hung there, and young Edward V and his brother, the Duke of York were killed there by order of their uncle, Richard III.
The Tower of London also has the royal jewel office. Here the crowns, scepters, and other royal treasures of the English rulers are closely guarded. Even today people from foreign counreies come to the Tower of London to see its unusual history.
