Man arrested after sword stolen from 130-year-old Joan of Arc statue

I was so shocked to hear about what happened in Paris back in January 2026! It involved the Joan of Arc statue, the one near the Saint-Augustin church in the 8th arrondissement. Apparently, that statue is really special – it was made in 1895 and is one of only four copies ever created and put on public display. It’s just incredible to think about its history!
