"The Time Will Come - I, Anne Boleyn" (Part 2)

Beheaded

The time has finally come. On May 19, 1536, Queen Anne Boleyn was guided to a scaffold at the Tower of London and was the first queen in history to be publicly executed. Just two days before, her brother and 4 other men were also beheaded for adultery and treason. Anne's final words at the scaffold were "If any person will meddle of my cause, I require thee to judge the best", and so, we shall. Anne Boleyn's trial and execution has been investigated by historians from all angles, and while she has been misunderstood or censored, we are here to share her real story. In this very special season finale we have the pleasure of having Stefanie, a historian from The Historic Royal Palaces, join us as we discuss the final days of our favorite monarch: Anne Boleyn.
