The Tower of London: The Most Famous Medieval Prison
After invading England in 1066, William the Conqueror built a stone fortress to celebrate his victory and defend the city against any uprising. The fortress was 27 meters tall and it struck fear in the hearts of the defeated English. Many kings and queens used the tower for different events and purposes. The Tower of London served as a place of entertainment, protection, hiding, and even as a safe for the valuables of the royals. However, the most infamous purpose of the Tower of London was to be a prison that no one dare escape.
