Mehun-sur-Yèvre - Collégiale Notre-Dame


Mehun-sur-Yèvre has been known since the ninth century. Originally under the rule of the Archbishop of Bourges, the city came into the possession of the House of France-Courtenay. Later the rule passed to John of Luxembourg (aka "John the Blind"), King of Bohemia, whose daughter Jutta of Luxemburg was married to the French King John II ("Jean II le Bon").
Mehun-sur-Yèvre grew around the church and the castle. The castle destroyed during the French Revolution (a miniature can be seen in the "Très Riches Heures"). The Romanesque church was built in the middle of the 11th century. Several choirs are connected to the ambulatory. It rests on the remains of the city fortifications.
In 1429, after the coronation of Charles VII in Reims, Jeanne d'Arc arrived in Mehun-sur-Yèvre. She led some military actions from here.
Jeanne d'Arc was staying in the house of Renault Thierry, then King Charles VII's surgeon.
