People are not very sure. There is not too much biographical information on her before she came to the English Court. Historians put her birth between 1501-1507 so she could have been anywhere from 35-29 when she was beheaded

Anne Boleyn was beheaded in May of 1536; however, it is unclear when she was actually born. Most historians believe she was born between 1499 and 1509, which would put her at between the ages of 27 and 37 when she was killed.

Anne Boleyn (c1501-07 to 1536) the second wife of Henry VIII (1491 - 1547), was crowned Queen on 15 June 1533. On the 7th September the same year, she gave birth to her first child, Elizabeth, (later to become Elizabeth I), which upset Henry as he was determined the baby would be a boy. Over the next two years Anne had at least two miscarriages, thus dashing Henry's hopes of a male heir. When he tired of her and in fact already had his eye on another lady at Court (Jane Seymour), trumped up charges of incest, adultery, witchcraft and treason were conveniently brought against Anne. Courtiers friendly with Anne: William Brereton, Sir Henry Norris, Sir Francis Weston and Mark Smeaton her musician, were all implicated in the alleged adultery. Even Anne's brother, George Boleyn, was accused of incest with her. Anne was found guilty and sentenced to death, as were the five men accused with her.

She was beheaded at the Tower of London, on 19 May 1536, going bravely to her death (even joking the night before about how slim her neck was) and executed by an expert French swordsman who Henry had ordered, to give her a quick and more merciful execution. Anne's remains were put in an arrow chest and buried in the church of St. Peter ad Vincula, at the Tower. Her grave was originally unmarked, but during Victorian renovations her remains were identified and there is now a marker over her resting place. Historians are not sure of her birthdate, but she would have been around the age of 30 when she died.
