Lambert Of Vignory
Lambert of Vignory, or Lambert II, was the bishop elect of Langres between the death of Bishop Robert in 1111 and the election of Joceran de Brancion in 1113. He is probably to be identified with the archdeacon of the same name who served Langres Cathedral in the same period. He was probably the son of Guy II, lord of Vignory, and Hildegarde. An earlier bishop, Lambert I, is sometimes (erroneously) called "Lambert of Vignory" also. Lambert's episcopate is known from one charter of 1111, wherein Count William II of Nevers donated the proprietary church of Saint-Aignan de Tonnerre, which had been passed down in his family, to the abbey of Molême. He proclaimed he did this for the benefit of the souls of himself, his father, Count Reginald II of Nevers, his mother, Agnes, his uncle, Count William I William I; ang, WillelmI (Bates ''William the Conqueror'' p. 33– 9 September 1087), usually known as William the Conqueror and sometimes William the Bastard, was the first ...

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Langres (Latin: ''Dioecesis Lingonensis''; French: ''Diocèse de Langres'') is a Roman Catholic diocese comprising the ''département'' of Haute-Marne in France. The diocese is now a suffragan in ecclesiastical province of the Archdiocese of Reims, having been a suffragan of Lyon until 2002. The current bishop is Joseph Marie Edouard de Metz-Noblat, who succeeded Bishop Philippe Jean Marie Joseph Gueneley on 21 January 2014. The diocese covers a territory of 6,250 km2 and its estimated catholic population is 140,000. History Louis Duchesne considers Senator, Justus and St. Desiderius (Didier), who was martyred during the invasion of the Vandals (about 407), the first three bishops of Langres. The See, therefore, must have been founded about the middle of the fourth century. In 1179, Hugh III, Duke of Burgundy gave the city of Langres to his uncle, Gautier of Burgundy, then bishop, making him a prince-bishop. Later, Langres was made a d ...

Langres Cathedral
Langres Cathedral (french: Cathédrale Saint-Mammès de Langres) is a Roman Catholic church in Langres, France. It was erected in the twelfth century, and is dedicated to the 3rd-century martyr Mammes of Caesarea. The cathedral is the seat of the Bishop of Langres, and is a national monument. The nave and interior are in the Romanesque and French Gothic style while the later facade is an example of French Neoclassical architecture History Romanesque and Gothic construction At the time that the cathedral was built, the diocese of Langres was considerably larger; it reached further south and included Dijon, which did not become a separate diocese until 1731. Around 1140, bishop Geoffroy de La Roche-Vanneau (1091–1162), a close friend of Saint Bernard of Clairvaux, took the decision to rebuild the cathedral. At that time the cathedral of Saint-Étienne in Sens, the first fully Gothic cathedral, was already under construction. The choir and the ambulatory were constructed firs ...

Lambert I (bishop Of Langres)
Venerable Lambert I (died 1031) was the count–bishop of Langres from 1016 until his death. He is sometimes called "Lambert of Vignory", but this is a result of confusion with bishop Lambert II. Nothing certain is known of his family, save that he had a married sister named Letgardis. Lambert was a cathedral provost under his predecessor, Bruno. Lambert's election as bishop, after Bruno's death on 30 January 1016, was orchestrated by King Robert II of France, who in return received from the bishop the county of Dijon. Whereas Bruno had been a Carolingian legitimist, Lambert's election represented a shift in allegiance in the Duchy of Burgundy towards the new Capetian dynasty. In October 1016, Lambert presided over the dedication of the renovated abbatial basilica of Saint-Bénigne de Dijon, a project of Bruno's. According to the contemporary chronicler Radulfus Glaber, at the dedication the abbot, William of Volpiano, ranted about the unusual dress and hairstyle of those from ...

Molesme Abbey
Molesme Abbey was a well-known Benedictine monastery in Molesme, in Laignes, Côte-d'Or, Burgundy, on the border of the Dioceses of Langres and Troyes. History Molesme Abbey was founded in 1075 by Robert, a former prior of the Abbey of Montier-la-Celle near Troyes. In 1070 he was appointed abbot of the Abbey of Saint-Michel in Tonnerre, which had become lax in observance of the Benedictine Rule. He found the monks reluctant to adopt any reforms and returned to Montier-la-Celle. At about this time he consented to repeated requests from a group of hermits to lead them in founding a new community of austerity of life. They settled in 1075 on a piece of land on a hillside by the River Laigne, in the present Molesme, not far from what once was the site of the Gallo-Roman settlement of Vertillum. The land had been given to Abbot Robert by Hugo de Norlennac. There they built a house and chapel from the branches of trees. Here the community lived in extreme poverty until a bishop visi ...
