Joan of Arc is one of three patron saints of France; she is also the patron saint of soldiers. Joan (in French, Jeanne) of Arc (sometimes written Jehanne D'Arc) was born to a peasant family in the village of Domremy, on the border between Champaigne and Lorraine in 1431. She was only 19. Her trial and conviction were later reviewed and she was absolved of heresy. In 1903 it was formally proposed that she be made a saint. On May 16, 1920, she was canonised as a saint by Pope Benedict XV
