Joan of Arc: In Rouen, her legacy still burns bright 600 years after she burned for France
The Normandy town of Rouen is more than just a nice escape from Paris. It’s also the site of where Joan of Arc burned at the stake in 1431. Much of the town is dedicated to one of the saviors of France as it has a museum and church in her honor and a giant cross on the site of the pyre. It’s next to a beautiful public market.
