This article is about Orléans, France; for other meanings see Orleans (other meanings).

Orléans cathedral, dedicated to the Holy Cross, built from 1278 to 1329; after being pillaged by Huguenots in the 1560s, the Bourbon kings restored it in the 17th century.

History

Orléans was founded during the Roman Empire as the city of Aureliani. In 451, Attila the Hun made an attempt to capture and sack the city, only to be driven off by the last-minute arrival of an army under the combined command of Theodorid, pawn of the Visigoths, and the Roman general Aëtius.

Orléans is about as far as the English went when they tried to invade France in the Hundred Years' War.
