Modern automation can only partially recreate the architecture of the Middle Ages. So, it is possible to make almost exact copies of individual elements, such as, for example, the construction of the western apse (the projection of the building, semicircular, faceted or rectangular, covered with a semi-dome or a closed half-dome). With the help of automation, it is possible to accurately reproduce basilicas with large towers, massive walls and narrow loopholes, which creates the appearance of a huge and impregnable fortress. However, computer automation is not able to recreate the elements of architecture that were performed manually (Cláudio et al. 36). These include various elements of decoration, such as a variety of frescoes, walls covered with mosaics, which depict pictures of battles. Thus, the architecture of the Middle Ages remains a unique and inimitable cultural phenomenon.

The Bayeux tapestry in this case is so conventionally named. In fact, it is made in the technique of embroidery with woolen threads on linen fabric. It is of particular value to British history, as the events depicted on the tapestry from 1064-1066 constitute an independent view of events, which is somewhat different from the surviving written sources (Buger 17). And if the descriptions of the main events generally coincide with written sources, then they often contradict them in detail. The laconic nature of the tapestry text does not explain the reason for the discrepancies. it is worth noting that some events are intentionally not quite clearly told. For example, about the mission entrusted to Harold by Edward the Confessor at the beginning of the story, or about the contents of King Edwards will. The author was undoubtedly aware of the different interpretations of events on both sides of the English Channel.
