Summary

Bayeux Tapestry Sells

Visitors must book months ahead because the Bayeux Tapestry exhibition sold out in hours, generating £2.5 million.
The tapestry will be displayed flat in a climate-controlled, shock-proof case.
It is insured for €960 million (£800 million) and required a police-escorted night transfer from France.
Scholars say female seamstresses likely created the 11th-century tapestry, highlighting medieval women’s artistry.
Over 1 million visitors are expected; some hotels bundle tickets into £1,100-a-night packages.
