Walk · 30 min · free · half-timbered houses, the church of Joan of Arc and the site of the 1431 pyre

The square where Joan of Arc was burned on 30 May 1431. Today it is surrounded by half-timbered houses, terraces and a small covered market, and in the centre stands the modern church dedicated to the saint, with a roof that recalls an upturned boat or the flames of the pyre. A cross marks the place of the execution.
How to go
From the cathedral, along Rue du Gros-Horloge, it is ten minutes' walk under the clock. On the square is La Couronne, which boasts of being the oldest inn in France, dating from 1345.
