Manassès II De Pougy
Manassès de Pougy ( – 11 June 1190) was a member of a powerful family in Champagne (historical province), Champagne, France, who was Bishop of Troyes from 1181 to 1190. He defended the rights of religious orders, and was a benefactor of the Troyes Cathedral. Early years Manassès de Pougy was born in Pougy around 1130. He came from a branch of the same family as Bishop Manassès I d'Arcis, which included the counts of Arcis, Ramerupt and Pougy, the most powerful lords of the province after the Count of Champagne. He studied at the school attached to the Troyes Cathedral. He was canon of Troyes, then was made grand-archdeacon of Troyes in 1167 under Bishop Henry of Carinthia. He was probably the same as Manassès de Pougy, provost of Saint-Etienne de Troyes. Bishop Manassès succeeded Bishop Matthieu, who died in 1180. He devoted much effort to ecclesiastical discipline, enriched the monasteries and chapters and gave to the poor. He was very generous to the Chapter of Saint-Nic ...

Roman Catholic Diocese Of Troyes
The Diocese of Troyes (Latin: ''Dioecesis Trecensis''; French: ''Diocèse de Troyes'') is a Latin Church ecclesiastical territory or diocese of the Catholic Church in Troyes, France. The diocese now comprises the ''département'' of Aube. Erected in the 4th century, the diocese is currently a suffragan diocese in the ecclesiastical province of the metropolitan Archdiocese of Reims. It was re-established in 1802 as a suffragan of the Archbishopric of Paris, when it comprised the ''départements'' of Aube and Yonne and its bishop had the titles of Troyes, Auxerre, and Châlons-sur-Marne. In 1822 the See of Châlons was created and the Bishop of Troyes lost that title. When Sens was made an archdiocese, the episcopal title of Auxerre went to it and Troyes lost also the ''département'' of Yonne, which became the Archdiocese of Sens. The Diocese of Troyes covers, besides the ancient diocesan limits, 116 parishes of the ancient Diocese of Langres and 20 belonging to the ancient dioc ...

Pope Lucius III
Pope Lucius III (c. 1097 – 25 November 1185), born Ubaldo Allucingoli, reigned from 1 September 1181 to his death in 1185. Born of an aristocratic family of Lucca, prior to being elected pope, he had a long career as a papal diplomat. His papacy was marked by conflicts with Holy Roman Emperor Frederick I, his exile from Rome and the initial preparations for the Third Crusade. Early career A native of the city of Lucca, he was born c. 1100 (perhaps 1097) as Ubaldo, son of aristocrat Orlando Allucingoli. He had close ties to the Cistercians, but it seems that he never joined the order. Pope Innocent II named him cardinal in December 1138, initially as cardinal-deacon of San Adriano, then (in May 1141) as cardinal-priest of Santa Prassede and sent him as legate to France. Under Pope Eugene III he served as legate to Sicily, and in January 1159 Pope Adrian IV promoted him to Cardinal Bishop of Ostia and Velletri.

Church Of St Urbain, Troyes
The Basilique Saint-Urbain de Troyes (Basilica of Saint Urban of Troyes), formerly the Église Saint-Urbain, is a massive medieval church in the city of Troyes, France. It was a collegial church, endowed in 1262 by Pope Urban IV. It is a classic example of late 13th century Gothic architecture. The builders encountered resistance from the nuns of the nearby abbey, who caused considerable damage during construction. Much of the building took place in the 13th century, and some of the stained glass dates to that period, but completion of the church was delayed for many years due to war or lack of funding. Statuary includes excellent examples of the 16th century Troyes school. The vaulted roof and the west facade were only completed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It has been listed since 1840 as a ''monument historique'' by the French Ministry of Culture. Eglise Saint-Urbain Origins Jacques Pantaléon (–1264) was the son of a shoemaker in Troyes. He studied at the Cat ...

She came from a branch of the same family as Bishop Manassès I d'Arcis of Troyes, which included the counts of Arcis, Ramerupt and Pougy, the most powerful lords of the province of Champagne after the Count of Champagne.
