About Saint Joan of Arc…
Saint Joan of Arc, born in 1412 in the small village of Domrémy in northeastern France, is one of the most revered figures in French history. At a young age, Joan began experiencing visions of saints, including Saint Michael, Saint Catherine, and Saint Margaret, who she believed were instructing her to support Charles VII and help expel the English from France. By the age of 17, Joan had convinced Charles VII to allow her to lead an army to the besieged city of Orléans, where her leadership and inspirational presence played a pivotal role in lifting the siege and turning the tide in favor of the French during the Hundred Years' War.
Joan's military successes were short-lived, as she was captured by Burgundian forces in 1430 and sold to the English. The English, seeking to undermine her influence and the legitimacy she lent to Charles VII, put her on trial for charges including heresy and cross-dressing, as she wore male military attire for practicality and protection. Despite her composed and defiant defense during the trial, Joan was found guilty and sentenced to death. On May 30, 1431, she was burned at the stake in Rouen, becoming a martyr for France.
In the centuries following her death, Joan's legacy grew, and she became a symbol of French unity and nationalism. In 1456, a posthumous retrial cleared her of all charges, recognizing her as a martyr and a heroine. Joan of Arc was canonized as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church in 1920, and she remains an enduring symbol of courage, faith, and determination. Her story continues to inspire countless people around the world, transcending the boundaries of religion and nationality.
