Marvel at a 230-foot-long embroidered chronicle that tells the story of William the Conqueror's 1066 invasion of England like a medieval comic strip. Created within decades of the actual battle, this UNESCO treasure features vivid scenes of preparation, combat, and conquest with surprising details and even bits of humor. The accompanying audio guide helps decode the Latin inscriptions and political propaganda woven into every scene.
