Saint Joan of Arc marble statue
Joan of Arc, also known as the Maiden of Orleans, was a famous military leader and national hero in French history. Born in 1412 in East Remi, France, she claimed to have received divine revelation from a young age, demanding that she lead the French army to resist the occupation of England. During the Centennial War in the middle of the 15th century, Joan of Arc successfully lifted the siege of Orleans by England in 1429. This victory greatly encouraged the French people and helped French Crown Prince Charles VII to be crowned king. Unfortunately, Joan of Arc was captured by the English in 1430 and burned at the stake in 1431 on charges of heresy and witchcraft.
