Cruises from Bayeux

Bayeux is a commune or district in Normandy, NW France, just 8 km inland from the English Chanel. Bayeux is known as the home of the Bayeux Tapestry (68m by 50 cm) which depicts the events leading up to the Norman conquest of England by William the Conqueror who defeated Harold at Hastings (England) in 1066. The tapestry, embroidered on linen with coloured woollen yarns, dates from the 11th C, and is the town’s major tourist attraction. It is exhibited at the Musée de la Tapisserie de Bayeux. Read more

(View it on loan to the British Museum in 2022.) “It was designed to tell a story to a largely illiterate public; it is like a strip cartoon, racy, emphatic, colourful, with a good deal of blood and thunder and some ribaldry” (Wingfield Digby, G. 1957)
