Answer and Explanation:

Beowulf asks Wiglaf to build him a tower as a tomb and call it Beowulf tower so everybody understands that he was the greatest warrior of all time. He believes that his tower will be a significant legacy to his memory, even as his nation is taken over by outsiders the tower will still be there to remaind everybody of his presence.
