Car Hire Epinal - Mini guide to Epinal
Epinal
Epinal is situated in French Lorraine, the region famed as Joan of Arc's homeland. Located along the banks of the Moselle River, Epinal has long been synonymous with the printing industry, as seen through the various bold-coloured litho-grams and stencilings available here.
For an excellent tour of the region's printing heritage, be sure to head to the Cité l'Image, which opened in 2003. This facility hosts a museum that catalogues the works generated by the former print shop, l'Imagerie d'Epinal. There is also space here allotted for modern works created by the contemporary printing community.
The Museum of Antiquities and Contemporary Art is located inside a refurbished hospital from the 1600s. The museum's prized exhibit is taken from the works of Georges de la Tour, a highly celebrated artist who made his home here in Lorraine Province. Several other prominent artists are also featured here, alongside archaeological artefacts dating back to Roman times.
The old city offers a selection of medieval architecture highlighted by Basilica St-Maurice. Built from grey stone, this church blends Romanesque and Gothic styles. The intricately-decorated entryway dates back to the 15th century.
Public transportation consists primarily of buses and trains. A hire car is therefore essential for exploring the heritage sites associated with Joan of Arc. We offer inexpensive hire cars from Epinal which can be booked online.
