Rouen, France and Saint Joan d'Arc

Rouen, France
We went to see the town of Rouen where Joan d'Arc was tortured and burned at the stake. This is the tower where she was held til her death.


Joan d'Arc dressed as a knight.


We learned that in this tower she was told that if she promised not to wear mens clothes that she would be set free but three days later she dressed up again and was then burned at the stake.
