Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The White Tower is a central tower, the old keep, at the Tower of London. It was built by William the Conqueror during the early 1080s, and subsequently extended. The White Tower was the castle's strongest point militarily, provided accommodation for the king and his representatives, and housed a chapel. Henry III ordered the tower whitewashed in 1240. Today the Tower of London is a museum and visitor attraction. The White Tower now houses the Royal Armouries collections.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

La Tour Blanche (en anglais : White Tower) est le donjon de la tour de Londres, située à Londres, en Angleterre. Elle a été construite par Guillaume le Conquérant à la fin du XIe siècle, et plusieurs fois remaniée.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Der White Tower ist der Keep des Towers of London. Der ab 1078 gebaute Turm ist mit einer Fläche von 32,5 Meter × 36 Meter der größte Turm der Festung. Im Laufe der Jahrhunderte diente er unter anderem als königliche Wohnung und als Gefängnis. Heute befindet sich eine Ausstellung im Turm. Seine auffallende Gestaltung sorgte dafür, dass die gesamte Festung als Tower (Turm) bekannt wurde, obwohl sie neben dem White Tower noch aus zahlreichen weiteren Gebäuden, Mauern und Gräben besteht.
