Boasting an exceptional architectural heritage, the city centre has been converted into a pedestrian area paved to make your walk even more pleasant.
You'll have time to admire the medieval houses, the facades of Renaissance buildings or the wonderful half-timbered house. At the turn of an alley, you will surely arrive in front of the Cathedral Ste Croix. All Gothic style, its construction required almost 600 years. Its genuine stained glass windows in dominant shades of red, blue and green, illustrate the life of Joan of Arc. Joan that you will meet again in a sculpture in the Martroi Square, riding and giving thanks to God, and to whom a museum is dedicated "La Maison de Jeanne d'Arc", located Place Charles de Gaulle. The district of the "Chatelet", skilfully restored and built around the Halles, today represents one of the main streets of the city. Shops, restaurants, terraces ... or how combining culture and joy of shopping.
