The TRAGIC Execution Of Anne Line

The Reformation was an incredibly dangerous time for people to live during, as if you disagreed with the religion of the monarchy then you could pay the ultimate price. During the reigns of the Tudor monarchs, there was much religious turmoil in England with the official religion of the country switching a number of times. The English people were switching between Protestantism and Catholicism often with every new reigning monarch.

Henry VIII reduced the power of the Catholic Church in England and created the Church of England based on Protestantism, and his work was carried on by his son Edward. Bloody Mary I however would return the country to Catholic worship during her reign, but after her death Elizabeth I was left with a country with serious religious problems. To resolve this Elizabeth introduced her Religious Settlement which aimed to bring the country together, but in reality it just outlawed Catholicism and brought in more issues.

One thing the Religious Settlement banned was Catholic Mass, and priests were not allowed to conduct this. So worship went underground. Anne Line the subject of our video was a devout Catholic who hid a number of Catholic priests in a refuge, which was punishable by death under Elizabeth's rules. The story of Saint Anne Line is an incredibly interesting yet sad one, in which a woman stood by her own morals and religion, and ultimately paid the price with her life. So join us today as we look at The Tragic Execution Of Anne Line.
