The Bayeux Tapestry has been delivered to the British Museum, marking its first return to the UK in nearly 1,000 years. This 70-meter-long embroidery, which illustrates the events leading to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, will be on display starting in September. The tapestry's journey involved meticulous planning to ensure its safety during transport.
