Maison dite de Jeanne d'Arc in Orléans, Museum and research center in Orléans, France.

The reconstructed Maison de Jeanne d'Arc features exhibition rooms, multimedia presentations, and an extensive collection of artifacts related to Joan of Arc's legacy.

Located at 3 Place du General de Gaulle in Orléans, the museum accepts groups of maximum 19 people and provides guided tours in French and English.

Walking in Orléans: between stone and Loire where every street has a story to tell

People often think they know Orleans, but the city always has something to tell. Behind its impressive cathedral, one discovers a lively old town with cobbled streets, half-timbered facades, and squares perfect for stopping. The history blends with the enjoyment of life: Joan of Arc still watches over the Place du Martroi, museums reveal their hidden treasures, and the banks of the Loire invite sunny walks. Along the quays, you encounter gardens, churches, Renaissance houses, and busy weekend markets. The city has maintained its calm pace without ceasing to surprise, balancing heritage, culture, and nature. Orleans is best explored at a slow pace, the one preferred by those who enjoy observing details, breathing the river air, and rediscovering their own city at every corner.
