The poppies at the Tower of London are an evolving art installation "Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red", to mark the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War.

The first poppies were installed in the moat at the Tower on 5th August 2014 - 100 years to the day since Britain declared war on Germany - and the last will be installed on 11th November, the anniversary of the Armistice in 1918 which brought an end to the fighting. A total of 888,246 ceramic poppies will be laid, each on signifying a British military fatality during the War.

After 11th November the poppies will be removed and sold off to raise money for six charities which support serving and former services personnel, and their families.
