In 1456, Pope Callixtus III authorized an inquisitorial court to investigate the original trial. The court nullified the trial's verdict, declaring it was tainted by deceit and procedural errors, and Joan was exonerated. Since her death, Joan has been popularly revered as a [[martyr]]. After the French Revolution she became a national symbol of France. She was canonized on May 16th, 1920, and declared a secondary patron [[saint]] of France in 1922. Joan of Arc remains a popular figure in literature, painting, sculpture and music, and cultural depictions of her continue to be created to this day. | In 1456, Pope Callixtus III authorized an [[Inquisition|inquisitorial]] court to investigate the original trial.
