French President Emmanuel Macron and British King Charles III viewed the Bayeux Tapestry exhibition on Wednesday at the British Museum in London. The preview was also attended by their wives Brigitte Macron and Queen Camilla, as well as British Prime Minister Andy Burnham. STVR (Minute by minute) ↗
The nearly thousand-year-old tapestry, approximately 70 meters long, is displayed in England again after centuries. France has loaned it to the British Museum for an exhibition that will open to the public on September 10, 2026 and will run until July 11, 2027. The work is among the significant symbols of relations between France and the United Kingdom, and its loan has been accompanied by public discussion. hnonline.sk ↗
Macron decided on the loan during a state visit in July 2025. The aim was to revitalize cultural relations between the two countries and emphasize their historical connection. During his visit to the exhibition, the French President stated that the bond between France and Britain should be as strong as the threads of embroidery. Charles III described the loan of the tapestry as a symbol of friendly agreement between the two states. Die Zeit ↗
The London exhibition is expected to rank among the most significant cultural events of the season. Organizers expect high public interest, with some sources mentioning up to a million visitors. The event also creates space for further Franco-British negotiations, as Macron's visit to London continues with political meetings with the British Prime Minister.
