What famous jewels are kept at the tower of london?
These are the British Crown Jewels, one of the crowns of which are worn by the monarch (at present HM Queen Elizabeth II) at the State Opening of Parliament, and other state occasions. The state crown is also used at a coronation of a new king or queen as it was at our present queen’s enthronement in 1953. When she dies, her oldest son HRH Prince Charles is next in line to the throne and will be crowned with the same crown as his mother was.
