Anke Kroning

At the age of 13, she experienced her first apparitions, and according to her words, Saint Michael and the holy virgins and martyrs Catherine and Margaret appeared to her, who would announce to her that her task was to liberate France from the English and

The young and ignorant Joan of Orleans, at the head of only a few hundred Frenchmen, captured the city of Orléans on April 29, 1429 and forced the English invaders to flee in panic. A strong liberating enthusiasm then swept over the whole of France. This young peasant woman, born in 1412, who was ordered by "voices from heaven" to save France from the English invaders, was entrusted by King Charles VII. leadership of a squad. She liberated the besieged Orléans, defeated the English at Patay, and then led the king to the coronation in Reims. At Compiègne, however, she fell into the hands of supporters of the English king, who handed her over to the English. The ecclesiastical court condemns her, according to the dictates of the English, to death as a heretic and a witch. She was burned alive at the stake on May 30, 1431 in Rouen. The dead heroine was rehabilitated during the revision of the process in 1456, and the Catholic Church (Pope Benedict XV) proclaimed her a saint on May 16, 1920. The second Sunday in May, dedicated to her memory, is celebrated in France as a national holiday. Her memorial day is May 30.
