An effort to intercept a supply convoy headed to this city sparked the so-called "Battle of the Herrings." An extravagant play about a battle in this city was staged by the notorious child-killer Gilles de Rais. The so-called "grandfather of Europe," the flamboyantly gay son of Louis XIII Philippe I, was (*) duke of this city, and founded a cadet branch of the House of Bourbon named for it. A battle fought at this city was the first major French victory after Agincourt during the Hundred Years' War. For 10 points, name this city on the Loire which Joan of Arc became the "maid" of for her role in lifting a siege.
