The Maison de Jeanne d'Arc reconstructs the house on the Place du Général-de-Gaulle where Joan of Arc stayed during the siege of Orléans in 1429. The original building was destroyed in the Second World War and the current structure is a careful reconstruction from historical sources, but the museum inside is honest about this and uses the space well.
Five floors of exhibits tell the story of Joan's military campaign: the political context of the Hundred Years War, her arrival at Orléans, the lifting of the siege, her later campaign to crown Charles VII at Reims, and her capture, trial, and burning at Rouen. The mannequins and dioramas are slightly old-fashioned, but the narrative is clear and the building itself is engaging. It works well for children and adults equally. Admission is free.
