Edward III had the Jewel Tower built c.1365 to house his personal treasures, with a moat dug around it for extra protection.

It is virtually unaltered today, and is one of only two complete buildings remaining from the medieval Palace of Westminster.

Administrated by English Heritage, the Jewel Tower now houses the exhibition Parliament Past and Present.
