Her feast day is April 30, but she died on April 29, 1380 in Rome. The people of Siena wanted her body back in Siena, but they had to get it past the Roman soldiers, so they only took her head and put it in a bag. The people prayed her that the Roman soldiers wouldn't see them, but they did. When they opened up the bag, there were hundreds of rose petals inside it instead of her head. When the people got back to Siena, inside the bag was her head and her right finger. No one knows how the finger got there. Right now her head and finger are still displayed at the Chapel of Saint Catherine in Siena.
