Tips from locals
”the Old Market Square” Stand in the place where Joan of arc was burn alive by the English! The very spot of marked by a large crucifix now. Although this is a very touristy side of town there is much to see and many places to eat and drink, although beware of tourist traps.
First, you've got the Church with its unique architecture. Then, the square itself, with the old, typical houses (turned into restaurants). Also don't miss the big cross, which is the exact spot where Jeanne d'Arc was burnt (not exactly cheerful, but a historic place nonetheless).
One of the oldest Markets in France. Very high quality - lots of restaurants and cafés in the place.
