What Wikipedia says

Sierpiński curves are a recursively defined sequence of continuous closed plane fractal curves discovered by Wacław Sierpiński, which in the limit n → ∞ completely fill the unit square: thus their limit curve, also called the Sierpiński curve, is an example of a space-filling curve.
