  The remnants of Type Ia supernovae can provide important clues about their
progenitor-histories. We discuss two well-observed supernova remnants (SNRs)
that are believed to result from a Type Ia SN and use various tools to shed
light on the possible progenitor history. We find that Kepler's SNR is
consistent with a symbiotic binary progenitor consisted of a white dwarf and an
AGB star. Our hydrosimulations can reproduce the observed kinematic and
morphological properties. For Tycho's remnant we use the characteristics of the
X-ray spectrum and the kinematics to show that the ejecta has likely interacted
with dense circumstellar gas.
