Changing the Guard
Buckingham Palace
Daily in summer, and on alternate days in winter. 1130 AM. A new troop of the Queen's personal bodyguards, The Brigade of Guards, march from either Chelsea or Wellington Barracks to relieve the guard at Buckingham Palace.
Mounting the Guard
Horse Guards, Whitehall
1100 weekdays, 1000 Sundays, a new Household Cavalry detatchment relieves the old guard.
Ceremony of the Keys
Tower of London
Talk about precise! At 21:53 every night the Chief Warder of the Yeomen Warders of the Tower of London locks the outer gates of the Tower and delivers the keys to the Resident Governor at Queen's House. Attendance is limited, so apply in writing well ahead to the Resident Governor.
