The King and Queen had the opportunity to see masters and artisans work with the same centuries-old techniques that have made the centennial factory an international benchmark. The couple began the visit in the Francisco Bayeu Room where the four panels were presented: History of the Royal Tapestry Factory, Tapestries, Carpets, and Restoration.
