I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a capital attraction' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'one old fort now turned' is the wordplay.
'turned' indicates anagramming the letters.
'one'+'old'+'fort'+'now'='oneoldfortnow'
'oneoldfortnow' is an anagram of 'TOWER OF LONDON'.

'into' acts as a link.
