In which city, according to the legend, did Lady Godiva ride naked through the streets in the 11th century?

Leicester

Coventry

Carcassonne

Cambray

There was a historic figure, Lady Godiva, wife of Leofric, Earl of Mercia. But, since the name was a popular one (meaning "gift of God" in Old English), it is uncertain if she was the same Godiva who appears in the legend.
