Rouen entdecken

The Historial Jeanne d'Arc is a museum about Joan of Arc in the archbishop's palace of Rouen, beside the cathedral, opened in 2015. A multimedia route from the Gothic crypt to the great attic follows the 1456 inquiry that cleared her name, in the building where she was condemned in 1431, and further rooms show how her legend was built.

The Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rouen is an art museum founded in 1801 and housed since the 1880s in a building by Louis Sauvageot. Its collections run from the 15th century to today, with paintings by Gérard David, Caravaggio, Velázquez, Poussin, Géricault, Delacroix and Monet, and an Impressionist collection given by François Depeaux in 1909.
