Kalleken N. was an Anabaptist woman that was arrested in July 1592 at Ghent, Belgium, together with Bartholomeus Panten and Michiel de Cleercq. The two men suffered death at Ghent on 15 September 1592. Van Braght's statement that Kalleken was put to death with the two men is an error. Verheyden found in the documents that Kalleken did not suffer death but was released after she had renounced her faith.
