She was not buried , her charred remains were thrown into the River Seine. Read the excert below.
"After she expired, the English raked back the coals to expose her charred body so that no one could claim she had escaped alive, then burned the body twice more to reduce it to ashes and prevent any collection of relics. They cast her remains into the Seine"

She was burned, then even her remains were 're-burned', to prevent people from wanting to make an icon out of them.
No burial for Joan.
