England’s Tower of London will be covered in ceramic poppies for VE Day

# Britain’s iconic Tower of London will be covered in a cascading installation of 30-thousand red ceramic poppies to mark 80 years since the end of World War II. The tribute, called “The Tower Remembers” will be unveiled to the public on 8 May which is celebrated as Victory in Europe Day. The moat of the 900-year-old Tower of London, which looms over the north bank of the Thames, was first flooded with the poppies in 2014 to mark the centenary of the start of World War I.
