Clocks, Cathedrals and Castles of Rouen Self-Guided Tour
Overview

Mobile ticket
Joan of Arc's judges asked her a question designed to condemn her no matter how she answered — and her reply left the court speechless. That story unfolds at the actual palace where it happened, one stop on this app-based self-guided walking tour of Rouen.
From the spot where Joan burned at nineteen to a Jewish study house hidden beneath the courthouse, this Rouen audio tour traces centuries of drama through medieval streets. Learn how one meal at France's oldest inn changed Julia Child's life, why the cathedral sold permission to eat butter to fund a tower, and what a mummified cat in a plague cemetery was meant to ward off.
Offline access, no fixed schedule, no group to keep up with — pause for lunch, linger in Saint-Maclou, or skip ahead.
If you'd rather piece a city together through real stories than follow an umbrella through a crowd, this is for you. Over 20,000 travelers have used our self-guided tours, and a full refund guarantee means nothing to risk.

5.00Very convenient. It allows you to take the tour at your own pace (in 1 or several days), to choose the order of stops, to return to the places that interest you, and to listen to the comments as many times as you want. The comments are brief but sufficient for me. And she will help me create my photo album.
Interesting information

5.00The tour can be started from any location and offers interesting information about the city and Jeanne d'*Arc. I like to use audio tours because I can do my explorations at my own pace and you often don’t notice much during tours in larger groups.
