The Bayeux Tapestry . . . animated
The Bayeux Tapestry (French: Tapisserie de Bayeux) is a 50 cm by 70 m (20 in by 230 ft) long embroidered cloth which depicts the events leading up to, as well as, the Norman invasion of England in 1066. The Tapestry is annotated in Latin. It is presently exhibited in a special museum in Bayeux, Normandy, France.

That was wicked cool!
After living where the Battle of Hastings really took place - in Battle, not Hastings - I love all things Bayeau.
One of my favorite local business' was a contractor whose called himself William the Concreter.
