The Daily Courant was the first newspaper published there.
The terrible World War II destroyed many of the beautiful buildings in the City.
Luckily, some important old churces like Temple Church are still standing.
One of the most interesting things to see there is St Paul's Cathedral. It is 110

London.
The oldest building in the City is the historic White Tower, which was built by
William the Conqueror in 1078. The whole group of buildings and towers is
called the Tower of London.
The Tower has a long, interesting history. It was a fortress, a royal palace and a
