<p>The Ravens of the Tower of London are part of one of the site’s most enduring legends: that if the ravens ever leave the Tower, the kingdom will fall. This superstition gained prominence in the Victorian era, though captive ravens have been kept at the Tower since at least the late 19th century. Today, a small group of ravens—typically at least seven to ensure the legend’s safety margin—live on the grounds, cared for by the Yeoman Warder Ravenmaster. The birds have their own enclosures but roam freely during the day, and each is named and known for individual quirks. Clipped flight feathers keep them from wandering too far, reinforcing both tradition and tourism.<br />
<br />
The Tower of London, founded by William the Conqueror in the 1070s, is a historic fortress and former royal palace located on the north bank of the River Thames. Built around the central White Tower, the complex expanded over the centuries into a concentric military stronghold, royal residence, and prison. It served multiple functions throughout its history, including as a treasury, armoury, menagerie, and the home of the Crown Jewels. The Tower was also the site of famous imprisonments and executions, including Anne Boleyn and Lady Jane Grey. Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Tower is one of Britain’s most visited landmarks, symbolizing the enduring legacy of royal authority and state power.</p>
