Joan of Arc and Rouen (Broché)

Joan had to discard her suit of armour when she entered Rouen as a prisoner of the English towards the end of the year 1430, but her fighting spirit never wavered despite the gruelling trial she was to undergo. She has long been a source of fascination for artists, historians and indeed anyone who, in the words of André Malraux, can see in her "the genius of action" in an "invulnerable soul". Take a trip in her footsteps through a Rouen where her memory lingers on.
