The Coventry Tapestry, one of the City’s great treasures, is over 500 years old and believed to be the oldest tapestry still in its original place in Britain. It has survived political and religious change, the Blitz and inevitable wear of time. There were some alterations made to it over the years, but it is still largely as it was originally conceived.
