Historial Jeanne d’Arc immerses visitors in the story of La Pucelle in the century, thanks to an innovative digital tour.
Right next to the Cathedral, this monument plunges you right into the 15th-century life of Joan of Arc. Judged a heretic, she was burnt at the stake in Rouen on May 30, 1431, aged just 20. To understand the influence of this character and the myth that has been built up over the centuries, an innovative digital tour takes you back to 1456, the year of Joan of Arc's rehabilitation trial. The walls of the Archbishop's Palace are brought to life by projection and mapping. The visit is especially fun for children.

Owner's Message
Forget your reference points: the Historial Jeanne d'Arc is not a traditional museum with classical works or collection objects. The show tour specially created to present the epic of our heroine is a feat of technology and innovation at the service of emotion.

Members' reviews on HISTORIAN JEANNE D'ARC
The ratings and reviews below reflect the subjective opinions of members and not the opinion of The Little Witty.
The entire museum is done through a slow audio-visual tour that blasts the entire room in french. All the while you are bombarded by the translator-headphones that chatter in 5 different languages all throughout the room. It's an overstimulating mess.
Because of this tour, no one can take their own route or go at their own pace. Some will be bored, and those who crave for details can't read more.
To make matters worse, it's all framed through the eyes of inconsequential characters that have all heard about or met Jean once or twice... this leads to 90 minutes of listening to fake old men talking about some thing they heard about 20 years prior.
finally, and this might not be important to some, but they also leave out all the action and tension out of the story, in a museum about someone whose life was filled with both.
abhorrent museum.
please don't go....
