Catharina Herman (died after 1604) was a Dutch heroine of the Eighty Years' War. She was hailed in history as a role model of marital fidelity. She was from Medemblik and married to a soldier whose name has been lost. In 1600, her spouse was sent to participate in the defense of Ostend against the Spaniards. When Ostend fell in 1604, she sold her property and left for Ostend posing as a man in an attempt to free her spouse from Spanish captivity. She was arrested for suspected spying and imprisoned, but in prison, her sex was discovered by a Jesuit, to whom she confided her mission. When told her spouse was to be executed, she requested to die with him. When the Jesuit told this to the commander, Charles Bonaventure de Longueval, Count of Bucquoy, he allowed the couple to be set free.

| - Catharina Herman, död efter 1604, var en nederländsk soldatmaka, berömd för sin räddningsaktion av sin make och ansedd som ett ideal av lojalitet. Herman var gift med en soldat som 1600 tjänstgjorde vid försvaret av Oostende mot spanjorerna. Då hon fick höra att staden fallit sålde hon sin egendom och klädde ut sig till man för att försöka befria maken. Hon tillfångatogs anklagad för spioneri, men i fängelset upptäcktes hennes kön av en jesuit som hörde hennes förklaring. Då hon fick veta att krigsfångarna inklusive hennes make dömts till döden bad hon att få dö med honom. Jesuiten rapporterade detta till befälhavaren, greven av Bucquoy, som då frigav både Herman och hennes man. Hon har upptagits i uppslagsverk (tidigast 1625), dikter, pjäser och en roman. (sv)
