A few years ago we had the chance to visit Bayeaux and see the famous “tapestry”. I knew the subject of the art but expected a huge work of art hung on a huge wall. Much to our surprise the “tapestry” is about 15” high and about 200’ long! (15 inches by 200 feet.) Amazing work to see even if the hall is dimly lit. (to preserve the piece.)

In nearby Caen, William's castle remains can be seen.

If you visit France, I recommend Normandy for the history is there to see.

Saw the death effigy from Eleanor of Aquitaine’s sarcophagus in New York at the Museum of Art. It was awesome. Would like to visit Normandy and Anjou the home of the loddly Plantagenets.
