The Tower of London, Westminster Abbey and Wimbledon's Centre Court are among the landmarks portrayed on pin badges in the buildup to the 2012 Olympics.

Olympic organizers revealed designs on Tuesday for the ``Landmark London'' pins, with each of London's 33 boroughs represented. Residents voted for the most iconic landmark in their borough.

Other featured sites include Tower Bridge, the London Eye, the Globe Theatre, St. Pancras railway station, the Royal Observatory and Natural History Museum. Another pin features a statue in Redbridge of Winston Churchill.

The pins go on sale in London this month.
