It refers to a "breaking wheel", a torture device used for capital punishment in the Middle Ages and early modern times for public execution by bludgeoning to death.
Legend has it that St Catherine of Alexandria was sentenced to be executed on one of these devices, which thereafter became known as the Catherine wheel.
