On this episode of *Dave Does History*, we travel back to the smoke-filled streets of Rouen in the spring of 1431. It is here, on May 30, that a nineteen-year-old peasant girl named Joan of Arc faced her final hour—chained to a stake, surrounded by fire, and steadfast in her faith. But Joan’s death was not the end of her story. It was the spark that lit centuries of legend, politics, and devotion. Today, we will explore the war-torn backdrop of the Hundred Years’ War, the voices that led Joan from her village to the battlefield, and the betrayal that brought her to the flames. With courage beyond her years and convictions that defied kings and bishops alike, Joan of Arc left a legacy that has echoed far beyond the pyre. Stay with us as we tell the human story behind the martyr, the miracle, and the maid of Orléans.
