Joan of Arc was baptized in Saint Remy—the baptismal font can also be seen in the church. Next to the church is the birthplace and the Joan of Arc Museum, both of which are well worth a visit.

August 8, 2022,Von Basel via Rotterdam nach Bremen Tag 5 Neufchâteau - Chauvoncourt
Unfortunately, day 4 was not saved, so let's continue with day 5.
Very nice campsite in Neufchateau.
Again very warm and no cooling in sight.
Scenic like yesterday, tomorrow there may be a change again. Not as many meters of altitude as yesterday, but the last climb was really tough.

Still quite fresh in the morning. It got a bit warmer during the day, but the strong wind made up for that.

Very beautiful little villages with lots of lovingly restored and refurbished houses.

The Meuse cycle path itself rarely runs along the Meuse here.
