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.

Footbridge over the Marne-Rhine canal with a lovely view of the port of Void and the village. This small village center is home to a beautiful castle and offers good dining options.

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.

Rails were laid along the canal at the beginning of the 20th century in order to be able to pull ships along the canal with a locomotive. Until then, people or animals took over. Next to the bridge you will find an information board and a little further on an old locomotive.

An evening walk across the bridge to the neighboring town of Vaucouleurs is also worthwhile. There is a supermarket and various restaurants.

You can stay overnight here very well and inexpensively in the middle of the town with Pascale and Christophe Mangin (special price for pilgrims with a credencial!). http://www.ferme-rouvau.fr/sejours.html
