The Rouen Transporter Bridge was a transporter bridge that spanned the Seine in Rouen, France. It connected the Quai Gaston-Boulet on the right bank to the Quai de la Presqu'île-Rollet on the left bank. Until its destruction in 1940, it was the final bridge to cross the Seine before its estuary.
The city of Rouen decided to erect the bridge on 23 September 1895 to improve communication between the banks, which were then served by only three other bridges. Designed by engineer Ferdinand Arnodin, construction began in the autumn of 1897. It opened on 15 September 1899, becoming the second transporter bridge in the world to be put into service after the Vizcaya Bridge in Spain.

The Church of Saint Joan of Arc is a Catholic church in the city centre of Rouen, northern France.
The church of Saint Joan of Arc was completed in 1979 in the centre of the ancient market square, known as the Place du Vieux-Marché, the place where Joan of Arc was burned at the stake for heresy in 1431. A small garden, Le Bucher, which is outside and to the north of the church marks the exact spot.
The modern church Sainte-Jeanne d'Arc and the adjacent market halls were designed by the architect Louis Arretche, who was commissioned in 1969. The sweeping curves of the structure are meant to evoke both the flames that consumed Joan of Arc and an overturned longship. Many early Christian churches were designed in the shape of an overturned boat. The market halls simultaneously resemble smaller overturned boats and fish with gaping mouths, which are also rich Christian symbols. The tiled roof echoes this theme and forms a covered walkway over the square.
