The Bayeux Tapestry

The Bayeux Tapestry is considered a masterpiece of early medieval wall tapestries. Having said that, it is not strictly a tapestry since it is embroidered. Nonetheless the 224 feet long tale of the events leading up to the Norman Conquest of England and the Battle of Hastings in 1066 has gained the name "The Bayeux Tapestry". Numerous scenes from the original on display at Bayeux in Normandy, France are available to order including Duke William Bayeux tapestries woven in France and Belgium.
