This attraction was recommended by some friends who had visited Normandy last year. I have to admit, it sounded like a total "snooze-fest", but it ended up being quite remarkable. The Bayeux Tapestry is an embroidery, 70 meters long, made in the 11th century. It is one of the most famous works of art in the western world from medieval... More

This is truly amazing. To think it has lasted in such a good condition for so many centuries and tells the history of the Norman Conquest so well.

The tour takes you through at the right pace, not too quick, not too slow. It is very informative too, however familiar one thinks one is with the Bayeux tapestry it is a mine of information that was certainly completely new to me. Although the tour does not take that long I feel it is reasonably priced.

While I wouldn't make the trip for it, while in Bayeux, it's certainly worth the time. The Tapestry is beautifully preserved, well lit and displayed. The audio guide is included and necessary.

A remarkable piece of work. I'm so thrilled to have seen it! The audio guide was an enormous help. Really well-stocked gift shop. Was well worth the visit

We had a most enjoyable visit to this museum. The tapestry is well displayed, with an accompanying audio presentation - although a little out of sync with the panel you are viewing. The exhibition area and the visual presentation were excellent and in hindsight it is probably better to see these first and then the tapestry.

As great as we had hoped it would be. This alone is worth the trip to Normandy . Highly anyone traveling to the area make this a " must see " .

The tapestry is an absolute marvel. I would suggest if possible to do the museum and movie upstairs first. Make sure you get the audio guide. The tapestry is quite long and is displayed in a 'U' shaped room. Although there is conjecture about who actually created it, the story of how it survived is amazing. If you are in... More

A brilliant work of art and a fascinating look at history unlike none other. Do not miss this on your visit to Normandy!
