Joan of Arc’s Final Days: What Happened in Prison Before She Was Burned Alive

In 1430, the trajectory of the Hundred Years' War shifted when Joan of Arc was captured and transferred to English custody in Rouen. Facing a tribunal led by Bishop Pierre Cauchon, the young prisoner endured relentless interrogations within a military fortress designed to delegitimize King Charles VII. The trial operated outside standard ecclesiastical procedures, subjecting her to harsh confinement under male guards while theologians dissected her claims of divine guidance.

The proceedings exposed a systemic violation of canon law, where arguments regarding divine visions and male clothing masked the political intent to destroy a military symbol. Her execution at the stake highlights the brutal intersection of medieval warfare, religious authority, and political vengeance in occupied France.
