About this listen
February 21, 1431
At eight o'clock on a frozen Wednesday morning, a nineteen-year-old peasant girl in leg irons shuffled into the Chapel Royal of Rouen Castle to face forty-two robed clerics who had already decided her fate. Two years earlier, Joan of Arc had heard the voice of the Archangel Michael in her father's garden. She went on to break the siege of Orléans, rout the English across the Loire Valley, and crown a king at Reims. Now she was chained to a wooden block in an English military prison, guarded day and night by soldiers, and charged with heresy, witchcraft, and the unforgivable crime of being a teenage girl who had changed the course of a war. The king she crowned never lifted a finger to save her. This is the story of the most infamous trial in medieval history.
