It occurs at noon on Accession Day (February 6), the Queen’s two birthdays (no wonder she is so old) April 12, June 17, Remembrance Sunday (November 12) and on other special occasions.

39 (-) Jewel Tower

The 1365 Jewel Tower, or 'King's Privy Wardrobe' was built so Edward III could have somewhere to put all his valuables. The 14th-century ribbed vault is of particular interest as is the English Heritage Book of Remembrance. On the second floor you can uncover all the history behind this jewel of a building. The remains of a moat and medieval quay are still visible outside.
