What city was Joan of Arc tried and condemned in?

The story behind the answer

She was captured in 1430, handed to the English, and tried by Bishop Pierre Cauchon’s ecclesiastical court in the English-occupied capital of Normandy. The proceedings were heavily biased, aimed at discrediting her visions and, by extension, the legitimacy of Charles VII. Convicted of heresy and labeled a relapsed offender, she was burned at the stake in 1431 at the Old Market Square.

The case was profoundly political: her victories had lifted French morale, broken the siege of Orléans, and paved the way for Charles’s coronation at Reims. After the war’s tides turned, a posthumous “nullification trial” in 1456 voided the verdict, recognizing the original process as unjust. She was canonized in 1920, becoming a symbol of faith and national resistance.
