Miraculous preservation of the body

[edit]

Catalan Wikipedia says that her body was dug up in 1731 and found to be miraculously preserved. They checked again in 1771 and 1805 and she was still looking just fine (they said...) I don't really do Catalan (even if Google-translate does) and sadly Catalan wiki doesn't really do too many sources - at least not regarding Anna Maria Antigó. BUT the veneration of her corpse is likely to be why we've heard of her, and the career of her body after she died may even be more interesting than what she got up to while alive. If anyone can find a halfway decent source of her body's afterlife, please can someone add a bit on it? Googling "images", I found a picture of tablet which appeared to relate the story in summary, but when I tried finding it again I couldn't. But maybe of someone visiting Perpignan with a camera visits the " monastère sainte-Claire de Perpignan", there is a tablet there that could be cited as a source and/or even .... photographed for wiki-commons. Long shot? Yes, but long shots do occasionally work out. Regards Charles01 (talk) 16:10, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Also LOTS of English people have retired to southwest France, respecting the crazy difference in house prices between the two countries. Maybe one of these is a wikipedia contributor who visits Perpignan (where there used to be an enticingly large Auchan/Mammouth hypermarket - maybe still is) Charles01 (talk) 16:14, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
