Secrets Over Crown Jewels At Tower Of London
Secretly guarded for centuries the crown jewels, known as the repaita, are reportedly moved or hidden within the Tower of London during repairs. Access is tightly controlled via a trapdoor in the cage within the Wakefield tower, with only the governor and one other person possessing keys. Some sources claim Bank of England custody while others insist they remain inside the Tower with secret strong rooms in the foundations. The jewels have rested under royal care since Henry II, except the crown of Edward the Confessor kept at Westminster Abbey.
