This project, with a quality of images never seen before, was led by the City of Bayeux and DRAC Normandie, photographed by La Fabrique de Patrimoine and reconstructed by the University of Caen and the CNRS. This panorama is the basis of reference of the SIDS tool, designed to accompany scientific research on the millennial embroidery, the results of which will be accessible within the future museum.
