Statue of Joan of Arc (1412-1431), patron saint of France and defender of the French nation at her birthplace in Domrémy-la-Pucelle (Vosges), France
The birthplace of Joan of Arc is a 15th century house in medieval style, located in Domrémy-la-Pucelle in the Vosges in Lorraine (Grand Est Region). In this family home of the Arc family, Joan of Arc was born around 1412; she spent her childhood there and heard the voices and contemplated her first apparitions. The house has been listed as a historical monument since 1840 and labeled as one of the "Houses of the Illustrious" (Maisons des Illustres). This sculpture of Joan of Arc (1412-1431) was made by Princess Marie d'Orléans and donated by her father Louis Philippe I, King of the French, to be placed inside the birthplace of Joan of Arc in Domrémy-la-Pucelle, where it has remained ever since.
