Anne Boleyn was executed on Tower Green within the Tower of London on May 19, 1536. The execution took place on a scaffold that was set up on Tower Green, which was a private area inside the Tower complex reserved for nobility. This location was chosen to provide some dignity and privacy, away from the large public audiences at other execution sites like Tower Hill or Tyburn. There is some dispute about the exact spot of the scaffold. The granite paving on Tower Green marks a traditional believed execution site, laid by order of Queen Victoria, but some sources suggest the actual scaffold may have been on the nearby parade ground between the White Tower and the entrance to what is now the Waterloo Barracks (Crown Jewels building). Historical plans indicate Anne was likely executed in the area between the White Tower and the Waterloo Block, a location now accessible to visitors of the Tower of London. Anne was buried in the Chapel of St Peter ad Vincula within the Tower after her execution.
