As the Tower of London was built by William the Conqueror, also known as Duke William of Normandy, it was built by Norman masons and English labour, and is an example of Norman architecture.
The White Tower retains many original architecture features, but the rest of the Tower has undergone so many modifications that it is difficult to pinpoint any one architectural style. The Tower of London is one of the most fascinating examples of medieval castles.
