William the Conqueror killed Harold Godwinson at The Battle of Hastings in 1066. During the battle, a decisive moment came when Harold was struck by an arrow in the eye, which is famously depicted in the Bayeux Tapestry. Following this, William's forces overwhelmed Harold's troops, leading to his death and the end of Anglo-Saxon rule in England. This victory allowed William to become the first Norman king of England.
