Just passing through Rouen? We strongly recommend a visit to the Historial Jeanne d’Arc museum in Rouen<\/strong>. Located in the archiepiscopal palace<\/strong> in the heart of the medieval quarter, it has been open since 2015.<\/p>\n\n

Through an immersive journey<\/strong>, the visitor can discover the story of Joan of Arc<\/strong>, from the end of her life to her posterity<\/strong>. Indeed, the palace itself was the setting for Joan of Arc’s 2 trials, and it was on the Place du Vieux-March\u00e9 that she was burned alive in 1431. With 1,000m2 dedicated to a spectacular and innovative visit<\/strong>, we’re convinced that the Historial will become a must-see in Rouen!<\/p>\n\n

In this article, we’ll give you some tips<\/strong> on how to plan your visit to this unusual museum.<\/p>\n\n

Why visit the Historial Jeanne d’Arc?<\/h2>\n\n

Is the Historial Jeanne d’Arc museum worth it? Our opinion:<\/h3>\n\n

Certainly! You’ll be truly immersed in the 15th century. We enjoyed learning more about the story of Joan of Arc in a fun, educational and immersive way. The 2nd part of the tour is dedicated to the study of Joan of Arc’s posteriority. We found it very interesting, as museums don’t usually offer visitors a critical look at how history is written.<\/p>\n\n
