The spirit of Orléans’ medieval heroine, Joan of Arc, hovers over its lively old town and imposing neo-Gothic Sainte-Croix cathedral. 

The key building is Orléans Cathedral, which stands on the site of an existing church that was founded in the third century by the Bishop of Orleans, Saint Euverte. Destroyed by Protestants several times in the 16th century during the wars of religion it was later rebuilt and embellished by many of the Kings of France (Henry IV [1553-1610], Louis XIII (1601-1643) and Louis XIV [1638-1715]).

A day out of Paris to immerse yourself in history and scenic beauty!
