Anna Maria Antigó i Pujol (19 January 1602 – 28 September 1676)[1] was a Catalan nun. Antigo was abbess of the convent St. Clair-de-la-Passion, in Perpignan, dedicated to the Poor Clares. She is best known for her work for peace in this community, her reform of the Poor Clares' convent, and for her influence in Catalonia and beyond. She is interred at St. Claire monastery, Perpignan. A beatification was initiated by the bishop of Perpignan, Jules de Carsalade du Pont [fr], in 1909,[2] but the process remained pending. Recognized as venerable, Antigo has a significant popular devotional following.
