Here she lived a life of penance and service before dying on 13th February, 1458 when still only twenty two. She was buried in the Augustinian church of St Nicholas, which was suppressed in Napoleonic times, and her body now rests in the church of St Gregory the Great in Spoleto. Her fame of sanctity and miracles increased and in 1834 Pope Gregory XVI confirmed her long-standing cult.
