Today in 1431: Joan of Arc, condemned as a heretic, is burned at the stake. This is a piece of her dungeon. What? Yes. Read on... Before World War I, a statue of Joan of Arc was being planned for New York City. In 1912, learning that the dungeon was being excavated to make way for a modern building in Rouen, France, the statue committee purchased the lot of 229 blocks, some 36,000 pounds of stone. The stones left Rouen for New York in June 1914. Today they form the decorative elements of the pedestal of the statue at Riverside Drive and 93rd Street.
