Joan of Arc Monuments

Highlight • Monument

Joan of Arc was a resistance fighter during the Hundred Years' War, an armed conflict between England and France. She is venerated as the Maid of Orleans in France. It is said that Joan was a very young, small woman dressed in men's clothing with short hair. From an early age, she was guided by divine voices. In 1431, she was sentenced to death for witchcraft and burned at the stake at the age of just 19. In 1920, she was canonized by the Pope. Statues, monuments, and museums in her honor can be found throughout the country.
