Orléans, Frankreich
Of course, when visiting Orleans you can not miss a theme: Joan of Arc. Visit the Maison de Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc House) and visit the Sainte-Croix Cathedral. With its two imposing towers, it is a masterpiece of gothic architecture. The impressive facade is illuminated in the evening.
For relaxation, a walk along the newly landscaped banks of the Loire is recommended. When the weather is nice you can make yourself comfortable here with a glass of wine.
