The Tower Remembers 2025

Running until 11 November 2025, the "Tower Remembers 2025" installation features a poignant arrangement of ceramic poppies, many from the original 2014 "Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red" display. This tribute honours those who served and sacrificed during WWII, with the poppies forming a symbolic "wound" on the South Lawn where bombs once fell.

A portion of the display is visible for free from outside the Tower, but full access requires a standard admission ticket.
