The Bayeux Tapestry, still preserved in Normandy, is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
This immense embroidery of nearly 70 meters long recounts the invasion of the Kingdom of England in 1066 by William, Duke of Normandy.
It traces an unparalleled odyssey through a period of major upheavals in History: that of the early Middle Ages and the advent of the feudal system in Europe.
The end of the Vikings, the beginning of the Knights.
