Bayeux Tapestry

“The most important relic to survive from the eleventh century. A stitched chronicle of the battle. Who commissioned it? How and where was it made and how did it manage to survive, when so little else did from those times? What does it tell us of the Battle of Hastings? …Here, you will find the complete Bayeux Tapestry reproduced section by section in much higher resolution and scale.”
