In the17th century a group of Flemish weavers purchased buildings from the
Gobelins family. From the 1660's to present day, the Gobelins name has
been associated with tapestry weaving.
Structured as a traditional guild workshop, students have been apprenticing with tapestry masters for hundreds of years. Despite its difficult history, The Gobelins Workshop has produced many exquisite works of tapestry art.
