Main courtyard of Angers château. The entrance to the Tapestry of the Apocalypse is to the right and behind the viewer, gift shop ahead and to the left. The cathedral spires show beyond the wall.


Tapestry of the Apocalypse room, general view


This is the second part of the Tapestry of the Apocalypse room, the room being L-shaped. The first leg of the room is at least as large as this part. The curved bulge is the lower part of one of the château towers. The lighting is low for better presevation of the tapestry.
