Jeanne Van Calck (17 September 1897 – 7 February 1906), also known as Joanna, was a Belgian child murder victim, whose case became a symbol for childhood innocence.

[3] Around 23:45, a machinist from the Théâtre de l'Alhambra, Joseph Eylenbosch, and his son discovered a suspicious package outside the door of 22, rue des Hirondelles/Zwaluwenstraat (a house that was demolished in 1965).

He was joined by a colleague, Pierre Noël, who helped carry the package to the police station on the Place du Nouveau Marché aux Grains/Nieuwe Graanmarkt.

When two men arrived at the police station to report Jeanne's disappearance, it was found that the clothes she had been wearing corresponded to those discovered.

The burgomaster, Emile De Mot, presided over the collection of the body from Saint-Pierre Hospital's mortuary and accompanied the funeral procession.

[1] A Parisian lawyer, Louis Frank, gained access to the files and listed 29 failures in the investigation, publishing his findings in 1909.

She reported seeing her friend around 7 p.m. on the night of her murder near her grandparents' house, accompanied by a man she seemed to trust, but heading in the opposite direction from her mother's home.

[3] Émile Rossel, the owner of Le Soir at the time, opened a subscription service to fund a white marble monument in homage to the "Little Angel of the Rue des Hirondelles".
