Yeoman Warders

Yeoman Warders, commonly known as Beefeaters, are ceremonial guardians and staff at the Tower of London, an historic fortress and palace in England. They are responsible for guarding the Crown Jewels, ensuring the security of the tower, and conducting guided tours for visitors. Historically, they were the palace's military defenders, but today they also serve as ambassadors of British history and tradition. To become a Yeoman Warder, candidates typically need significant military or policing experience, and they are recognized by distinctive attire and their roles in maintaining centuries-old royal and national heritage.
