Tower of London

Located in the heart of London on the River Thames, the Tower of London's reputation for torture and beheadings fuels nightmares. Originally built as a fortress by William the Conqueror in 1078 it becomes a prison in 1101. Here the Queen, Anne Boleyn faces the executioner's blade. Convicted terrorist Guy Fawkes refuses to talk, and two young princes are betrayed by their own family.
