This church is amazing and important for many reasons besides the obvious!
The shape of the building is so intriguing! If it had not been signposted as a church, or if I had not seen the crucifix outside I would have been none the wiser!
Me and my friend Jamilah circled the church just to get the full effect, and boy is it great!! It was quite scary seeing the exact point where Jeanne d'Arc (Joan of Arc) was burned at the stake...very sombre!
Inside was beautiful, the ceiling was absolutely amazing, as was the altar and other ornaments there. It was very peaceful and I felt by taking photos I was disturbing the serenity, but the usher assured me it was ok!
I definately recommend going here, its so beautiful, even if you are not religious! Leave a Comment

 Joan of Arc Church by jmhenry1123
The roof looks like an inverted hull of a viking ship. A cross and red geraniums mark the spot where Joan was burned at the stake. Leave a Comment

Built next to the site where Joan of Arc was martyred, this modern church has a dual vocation; first as a church honouring St. Joan and the second as a civil memorial to France’s national heroine. France officially commemorates Joan of Arc on the second Sunday in May. This is the time when one can visit the Joan of Arc Festival in Rouen. Leave a Comment Address: Place de Vieux Marché, Rouen

 Jeanne d'Arc, Joan of
Arc, Maid of Orleans by Pavlik_NL,

France, that had so much to thank from Jeanne, didn't care less until the 20st century, when finally they started realising the importance of Jeanne's actions to unify the French against the English. In 1920 Jeanne was declared a saint and in the same year the French governement decided to recognise her as national hero. Then things started to turn around and she became a true French hero. She now has her own commemoration day, the 30st of May. Her story will live on forevermore. Leave a Comment
