We particularly enjoyed the history of the town, situated on the Meuse River. The beautiful town hall was built in 1847/48 on the site of a monastery in the Italian Renaissance style. In front of the town hall stands the gigantic equestrian statue of Joan of Arc, revered by the French. This cast-iron monument weighs 2.5 tons. Joan is said to have conquered the city. There is also a Joan of Arc Museum in the town.

The railway no longer exists, the locomotives have been distributed throughout the region, and the rails are being dismantled.

An unusual church because of its shape (round). To the left of the gate there is a water tap.

Vaucouleurs plays an important role in the story of Joan of Arc. It is the place where, in 1429, Joan of Arc convinced Robert de Baudricourt, commander of the garrison, to send her with an escort to Chinon to meet the Dauphin Charles (later King Charles VII of France). . This encounter was crucial in beginning their mission to liberate France during the Hundred Years' War. In Vaucouleurs there are several historical sites linked to Joan of Arc, including the Porte de France, through which she passed on her way to Chinon, as well as a museum dedicated to her.

The Porte de France in Vaucouleurs is a medieval gate that marks the departure of Joan of Arc from the Château de Vaucouleurs in 1429. You can admire the architecture of the gate and the chapel, as well as the statue of Joan of Arc and the old lime tree that, according to legend, his horse would have nibbled. You can also explore the remains of the castle and the museum dedicated to the heroine.

Vaucouleurs takes its name from this part of the Meuse river, called Val des Couleurs. This Joan of Arc town (dedicated to Joan of Arc) was located a few kilometers from the front during the First World War. Today, it is a charming village with many streams and beautiful forests.

Round church that must be visited. Supply of drinking water incl.
