Traitor's Gate
Traitor's Gate used to be known as
Water Gate, but as time changed, it was used for the landing of the
enemies. All of the important prisoners entered through this gate to
enter the Tower. All prisoners came with the hope of being ransomed or
pardoned.
Bell Tower
The Bell Tower was built in the 1200s, and it stands in the southwest cotner of the Inner Ward. In the past when the Tower was still in official use, the bell was rung to alarm the people, and the drawbridges were raised to prevent any further invasion or escape, portcullises were dropped, and all the gates and doors were shut for maximum security. Currently, the bell is only rung to wanr the visitors that it is almost time for them to leave for the day.
