Because of its name lots of people think the Jewel Tower was home to the Crown Jewels but they’ve always been locked up safe and sound inside the Tower of London. This was where Edward III kept all of his other valuables – his beautifully decorated bowls, goblets, carved cups, silver plates, feathers and gems. By the time Henry VIII came to the throne it had been demoted to a cupboard for his furniture and clothes, and later on it became a storehouse for all the Acts of Parliament made over the road.
